I was coming into this appointment with a different perspective than she usually sees, but despite some differences in syntax, we both kept trying until we understood each other, and I really appreciated that. She listened and explained why options were different and the extent to which they may or may not help and we made a plan we were both happy with. She also appreciated that I cared about my women's health, all aspects of it, not just try to get to an outcome whether it is advisable or not.

The doctor was amazing, very professional very human and she explained everything in details and she wanted to make sure that the patient understood the process! I would recommend her to everyone! She is the best

Reviewed on Jan 17, 2023

I'm so glad that Dr. Attaran is taking over my care as a patient! I've spent the past week telling anyone who'll listen how much I like her. She's extremely knowledgeable and very thorough and I really appreciate how she broke everything down with steps and sketches in a plan that that we both agreed on. With benchmark steps I don't feel as overwhelmed as I otherwise would have. Navigating infertility is challenging, and for the first time I feel like I'm in the best of hands. There's no crystal ball or guarantee with infertility treatment, but I really trust her and her abilities to give me the best chance at success.

Reviewed on Jan 9, 2023

Dr Attaran made me feel like I was an idiot and was wasting her time. She never addressed our concerns or even came up with a care plan. She has never contacted us over her bloodwork. I am very disappointed and disappointed with the appointment. She was very dismissive

Reviewed on Oct 24, 2022

The doctor was knowledgeable but had a very poor bed side manner. Appeared as if it was a bother to treat my daughter. Very minimal compassion when talking to a minor. I respect the Cleveland Clinic and have always been an advocate for the wonderful care they have provided my family in the past. I will not let this poor experience impacted my regard for this prestigious hospital. I will simply not ever plan to return to this provider. Medicine is a two-fold factor. The great knowledge and expertise of providing care but it will never be beneficial without compassion and empathy for those whom is being treated.

Reviewed on Aug 4, 2022

Everything was great despite the news being shared not always being what you want to hear. It's a tough job and can't be easy sharing hard news with patients, Dr. Attaran was very thorough and kind despite me being very sad.

Reviewed on Aug 1, 2022

Would not recommend *Dr. Attaran as she didn't seem to care at all about concerns and was rude in her comments. VERY VERY disappointing experience as I expected better care. I was given a choice between Pittsburgh or Cleveland Clinic. The experience really made me question my choice. She was inappropriate in regards to the treatment we used for our daughter. Although it was prescribed - inappropriate in her comments to to the mother. Her response seemed accusational. Additionally my daughter (age 15) was confused by her questioning and demeanor.

Reviewed on Jun 30, 2022

Dr. Marjan Attaran listened to my history and questions and went through explanations and care options with empathy and clarity. I quickly trusted and respected her due to this and feel as though she really knows her area of medicine well. I appreciated all of her thoughtful answers to my questions and that I left the appointment feeling empowered and knowing my options/ the pros/ cons of each option. She is a wonderful doctor!

Reviewed on Jun 2, 2022

The doctor was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I've seen five different local doctors over the past four years over the issues I've been having and she was able to explain things and put me on a path to get better. I am extremely grateful for our conversation and feel like I can finally see a light at the end of a very long tunnel.
