Jay B. Han, MD

I was having issues with my heart. Made an appointment and got sent to Dr Han. I met with him 3 times, he never once used a stethoscope on me. He had an echo performed on me then called me into his office later that week. I was diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve. He put me on meds and had a life vest put on me, an external defibrillator in case my heart stopped. I told him all my symptoms and he seemed to ignore them. Long story short my wife went with me to our third meeting. He pretty much ignored her and chastised me for not getting blood work done. He always seems rushed and bothered by his clients. I got a second opinion from the Cardiology Specialist of Orange County and within 10 minutes they sent me to Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach where I stayed for 17 days and got open heart surgery to replace my bicuspid aortic valve. Funny thing is my wife asked Dr Han during that third meeting if replacing the valve would help me and he said ' I guarantee you that has nothing to do with what is wrong with Jake's heart' Go to anyone but him. Poor bedside manner. Poor diagnosis skills.

I would not recommend Dr. Han to anyone, he has a I Dont Care Attitude, my daughter wasn't feeling good and all he said was I dont know what's wrong and we need to do test. There's more to my story but it doesn't matter now my daughter passed away.

Wow! What an appointment. Dr Han is hurried, brash, rude and clearly wanting to leave the exam room before he even walks in. He did not know that I am a surgeon and accompanying my 95 year old mother. I cannot imagine talking to my patients the way he does. I am sure he was more respectful because I was there. I can only imagine the visit had I not been there. I have to believe administration has talked with him about his reviews. It's clear he has a serious issue communicating and connecting with patients.

My elderly mother was a patient of Dr. Han and I took her to her appointments with him and was in the room during the visits. He seemed adequate as far as his medical treatment, but I'm going to address his "bedside manner". He doesn't have any. He had no patience, was rude, condescending, and don't even think about asking him a question because it would be intruding on his time. My mother was a patient of his for about a year and a half. I was ready to change to another cardiologist after the 2nd visit, but my mother didn't want to deal with changing doctors. I would absolutely never refer anyone to Dr. Han. There are a large number of cardiologists throughout Orange County to choose from so if you have a PPO, do not go to this office. If you have an HMO, do not go to this office.

Was referred by my PCP to Dr. Han for ongoing palpations and chest pain. My experience with Dr. Han was very odd. Just as other reviews had mentioned, it felt like I was imposing on Dr Hans busy schedule by the way he was acting towards me. He quite literally burst through the door, was speaking incredibly fast, he seemed rude and as if he didn't want to be there, and repeated to me that his job was not to rule out chest pain that isn't heart related, which is understandable. I almost felt like I was being tested by the questions he was asking me, and had only a few seconds to respond before he'd cut me off and say something dismissive. Let me be clear, Im fine being told that I'm low risk and that my chest pain doesn't seem serious or heart related. I already knew that. I understand I am very low risk for any heart problems and really my only problems are PVCs which are not dangerous, but THATS WHY I was there, to rule out any serious problems. Why did the process of doing that have to include making me feel like I'm wasting his time and shouldn't be there in the first place? After asking me if I had any questions, he quite literally burst out the door again just as he entered, his stool literally almost fell over because of how fast he was going. For me, a good doctor is not all about knowledge and treatment. A good doctor is kind and patient and caring and openly listens to the concerns of every patient and tries to communicate their thoughts and findings in a considerate way. That's why I'm giving Dr. Han a low rating. P.S -- Not to mention the heart monitor he ordered me is not covered by my insurance and is $800 out of pocket, so overall the experience was almost a complete waste of time in the end. Health insurance in the US is a joke
