Moshe Faynsod, M.D.

I first met Dr. Moshe Faynsod in 2005 when I was referred to him for a large mass which was found on my left adrenal gland. He was very kind & understanding about how nervous I was thinking this was cancer but he was also very forthright and honest about what should be done. After a few tests and meetings, he determined the mass should be removed even if it was thought to not be cancer because it was so large and was still growing, it could be a problem later. He performed an adrenalectomy on me and removed the mass along with my left adrenal gland. A biopsy was performed and it was found to be benign. What a relief and thanks to Dr. Faynsod for great work. After my surgery he advised me he would be leaving NY to go to CA and take up practice there. I wished him luck but also knew that NY was losing a very good doctor and surgeon. He referred me to his associate who was also very nice but no Dr. Faynsod. You people in California should consider yourselves very lucky to have such a fine surgeon and person there in Dr. Faynsod. I wish him continued success and happiness! Thank you again Doc for helping me through a tough time.

Dr Faynsod is taking of me while I’m getting treatment for breast cancer. I am so blessed and the luckiest to be one of his patients because he is one of the best in the field and an expert in his specialty. Thank you Dr Faynsod for saving my life.

My husband needed cholecystectomy or gall bladder removal and had been waiting for another Dr to give him a surgery schedule… we waited 2 months and could not get a date… Dr. Faynsod was referred to us and said nothing but praises about him and we immediately saw the difference between the first surgeon and Dr Faynsod… beginning with the office staff and wait time… Dr. Faynsod ’ staff were all personable and courteous… the wait time was quick as well… as long as u have an appt… now about Dr. FAYNSOD… being a nurse myself, I know bedside manner and this doctor has it… he sat down… introduced himself… asked about the problem. gave his diagnosis/advice/plan…explained the procedure thoroughly… answered our questions… examined my husband and explained some more… he did not rush… we did not feel rushed… we finished our appt with a surgery date and time… we felt comfortable and assured leaving his office.
On the surgery day… there was a 2 hr delay. A few moments before OR team picked up my husband, Dr. FAYNSOD checked on us and explained and apologized for the delay… once my husband was wheeled to OR… it took about 1.5 hrs and Dr Faynsod gave us good report and surgery was without incident… again Dr. FAYNSOD showed great concern about his patients and pt’s family. My husband had very little pain after surgery and only took pain med twice on the first week… Besides the expected discomfort with moving and standing/​sitting/​lying down. he is doing great and had no side effects/​complications. Two thumbs up… and definitely a great surgeon.

Extremely professional and compassionate office staff. Attempts to be flexible with your schedule if possible. I was referred to Dr. Faynsod via my primary care physician — Dr. David Campisi’s PA — Vicky Penny (she’s wonderful!) Dr. ordered an MRI and will have a surgery in the near future. Sitting in an oncologists office is — at least for me — stressful — but most do-​able when you’re in such a professional and compassionate environment. Dr. Faynsod is a great listener and will answer all your questions without you feeling rushed — he takes time with you. If you are referred to him — don’t hesitate.

I had surgery performed by Dr. Faysond about a month ago. I can’t say enough about his bedside manner. He is such a kind person and makes you feel so special when he is treating you. I was so impressed by the time he took to explain thoroughly everything he was going to do and how I was going to feel after wards. I wish all doctors would take the time to make their patients feel as safe and cared for as he does. I would highly recommend him!!!

my wife had her gullblader removed by dr. faynsod, he was great, he took the time to awnser all our questions, his staff is great, and he was highly recommend by 2 other doctors.

I am a board certified dermatologist in Torrance and I send all of my patients with melanoma to Dr. Faynsod for treatment. He is one of the best surgeons I have ever had the pleasure of working with. All of my patients have returned singing his praises.
