Iskander Ray N MD

I’ve been a patient of a number of OB/GYN’s (shopping around for the right doc so to speak) and I love Dr. Iskander! He’s the best OB/​GYN I’ve been to (living in NY and, now, Los Angeles) and he truly does relate to you as an equal. He treats you like a human being and cares for your overall well being and emotions… not cold like most docs by simply wanting to treat your problem and move on to the next patient. He’s very friendly and doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable at all. I wish there were more docs out there that cared about people the way this guy does.

His the best doctor in the world

Dr. Iskander is the best doctor I’ve ever had. After suffering a miscarriage with my first pregnancy, I was a nervous wreck. I was referred to Dr. Iskander by a receptionist at a different OBGYN’s office, because she could see that I needed a doctor who would truly care about me and my pregnancy. Dr. Iskander is that doctor. He is kind, patient, understanding and thorough. He takes the necessary time to answer any and all questions, and he listens when you talk. I have only positive memories from my first pregnancy and delivery, and there is not one thing I would change. We moved not long after the birth of my son, and now that I am pregnant with our second child I wish more than anything that I could have Dr. Iskander and the staff at Glendale Adventist deliver my baby again.

I have a…“thing” against doctors, and I probably went to 10 different ones or more when pregnant with my first before finding Dr. Iskander.
He is the best. Knowledgeable, but not alarmist. He was totally fine with me doing home births. He is a sweet man and you can feel that he really cares about you and takes his time with you every time you go there. He even does the ultrasounds himself, rather than ship you off to someone else! I love him!

Dr. Iskander wouldn’t even get a 1 star, that is too much.
I went to Ray Iskander for my pregnancy, I am pregnant with twins and am high risk due to uterus, and cervix. When he sent me to a high risk specialust due to my pregnancy history, the specialist informed me of my uterus n cervix issues. he was shocked Dr. Iskander had been treating me as a normal pregnancy — when I went back to Iskander he said he wasn’t worried until I ran into severe complications.
I immediately went for second opinion, I found a few doctors who recommended pulling me off work ASAP and different treatments to PREVENT complications, I returned to Dr. Iskander with recommendations and he refused to consider them until I showed signs of miscarriage or early delivery — he looked at me and smiled as he said, «Don’t be scared, let’s wait and see» — then he said «Oh, you’re the one with twins?» «Still let’s wait and see».
Dr. Iskander was probably at one point in his career a very good doctor but maybe his age is no longer permitting him to perform like he used to — he forgets everything and office visits seem an entertainment for him, he looses track of his own conversations.
Maybe he’s good for normal OBGYN routine check ups but not for pregnancies, ESPECIALLY high risk ones.

I do agree! My mom and I have been going to him for years now and he is a very gentle, professional and sweet man. Dr. Iskander was my first ob gyn doctor. I was completely nervous for having a male doctor like that. After talking for a few minutes, you completely feel comfortable while he does his routine checkup. Before you know it, its over! He relates to you as a person and not just as a doctor/​patient visit. Definitely recommended!

Dr. Ray Iskander is one of the most decent, kind and caring doctors I have known. He is so careful and gentle when he does his examinations, and he offers warm friendly banter during the appointment, so you practically forget to be nervous as you are in a compromised position. I came to him as a referral about a year ago, and was impressed with his easy ways. I saw him today, and he recalled me easily, remembered our last conversation, and again was just as sweet as ever. I have had OB/GYN’s who were rough, ignorant and unconcerned with the information you gave them about your body. Dr. Iskander listens and makes note of everything so you are well taken care of in his capable hands. If you need a OB/​GYN in Glendale, I highly recommend Dr. Iskander.

The most caring physician I’ve ever met. A brilliant ob/​gyn and super committed to his patients and to progressive approaches to childbirth.
