Wonderful doctor. Wonderful staff. Dr. Sutha was quite thorough and considered every possibility. She provided probiotics as a start to treating my issue, Holding off on antibiotics until the tests results are in, unconvinced it is an infection. I was amazed I got in to see her so soon and will be visiting her again shortly. Sometimes you get lucky finding a doctor! Her staff was so attentive sometimes the room was full of people attending me! What a nice place.

Verified patient
I had a bad feeling about Dr. Sachar's place on my first visit. The place is set up for sales; there's makeup, fruit-water treatments, and other gimmicks lining the walls in every room. But, she listened well. She pushed her probiotics. The supplements were quite expensive when compared to what you can buy on Amazon. I believe she just wanted to take one more expensive step. I would be very careful of the "business"-driven aspects of her office.

Very friendly, professional and very explainable, comforting feeling as she entered the room my blood pressure went down as soon as she explained every details in a calm and friendly manner thank you and would recommended to everybody.
Verified patient
She was nice but everything was about supplements you could buy there. I was diagnosed with lyme (blood test) didn't see that coming.. but the diagnosing doc said all my gi symptoms were pretty clear. Not to mention my other symptoms. Not even a test for it. Also had 15 cysts removed from my stomach and the answer to that was a shoulder shrug. Of course, every test in the book was done with no answer. Went to new doc- blood test ordered. (actually 4.. diagnosis)
Verified patient
The doctor is nice, knowledgeable and took time to understand the situation. She started problem solving and came up w a plan right away
Excellent bedside manners along with knowledge made it the ideal doctor visit. Will recommend Dr. Sacher to family and friends.

Verified patient
In 60 years of going to different doctors, since I was 10 years old, there is no one who can be remotely compared to the kindness, caring, professionalism, the understanding, profound help, the ongoing follow ups, the capacity to take care of my numerous concerns, the grace and charm of what comes from my royal care. The best doctor I have ever met for which I am so grateful and lucky to have found.
Verified patient
Commercialized with selling of makeup and supplements made the professional environment confusing. Not typical of other doctors I've seen.
Very nice, but doesn't take Medicare at Bev Hills office, only Torrance office, which is very far for me!! Might stay with her, but frustrated over insurance baloney.
I found Dr. Sachar to be incredibly friendly and professional. The doctor answered all of my questions and made me feel that I was in good hands. Additionally, I found all of the office staff very friendly, helpful and reassuring. Very pleasant overall experience.
Verified patient

I have seen 15-20 doctors in the past few years. Dr. Suchar is incredible! Thorough, listens to you, and is very clearly educated on the "normal GI stuff" as well as nutrition and natural medicine. I have already recommended her to several friends. Six stars!
