About Ashkan Abedini, MD
I decided to become a physician so I could provide evidence-based medical care to patients. My care philosophy is to establish a strong patient-physician relationship to create an environment where patients feel safe and heard. With shared decision-making, my goal is to guide them in their medical journey in a safe manner. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, exploring new places, and experiencing different cultures with my wife. The Sharp Experience means to treat individuals not as patients, but rather as a whole person.

I appreciate how Dr Abedini spends the time to really understand what is going on and customize his treatment plan to fit you. It's uncommon to find physicians who spend time and listen. I'm not just referencing this one visit with him, each time I have had an appointment he has exceeded the level of care you'd expect and really listens

Dr Abedini displayed an understanding of my concerns and fully responded to my questions. His calm demeanor and personality were needed after my awful prior encounter with his assistant. I've never encountered an assistant so dreadful.
