Dr. Mahdavi is everything you could possibly hope for in a physician - kind and caring, with wonderful skills and an understanding that each patient has their own unique needs. I could not be happier with the results I have experienced under Dr. Mahdavi's care. Shelsie, Dr. M's office manager, is wonderful and amazingly helpful as well. I was excited to learn Novel U will soon be expanding their skin care services when they add an esthetician to their office - and am looking forward to when I can book a spa day with them! medical spa med spa Long Beach.
