Our Doctor
Dr. Marjan Saba
Dr. Saba was born and raised in Iran. After completing medical school in the Persian country, she worked as a General Practitioner in a rural area of Iran for over three years. Moving to the United States, Dr. Saba attended the prestigious USC School of Medicine where she specialized in Family Medicine.
Armed with extensive medical experience from her many years of practice, Dr. Saba opened her first office in 2006 in the heart of Inglewood. Her office is completely electronic as well as paperless and has evolved over the years to not only meet but exceed the standard for state-of-the-art technology. She uses her hands-on knowledge of Eastern medicine and blends it with modern Western medicine to create the perfect amalgam of healing techniques.
Dr. Saba utilizes these two distinct approaches to establish her own unique connection with each patient. Her approach is very warm and caring, and she takes all of her patient’s needs very personally. She has created a warm environment with a very friendly, trilingual (English, Spanish, Farsi) staff that puts patients first. The entire office works as a team to help support you in your healing journey.
Recently Dr. Saba has expanded her practice to multiple locations. Following the Covid-19 pandemic, the rise in telemedicine and virtual visits have led to Dr. Saba seeing patients in multiple states. As the unequipped health care system flooded with patients in need, Dr. Saba opened her practice up to virtually visiting patients from other states. The apparent necessity of primary care in Idaho prompted Dr. Saba to open up a second location in Nampa, Idaho in order to continue to treat more patients with no decrease in quality of care.
A Message from Our Doctor:
Welcome to the Friends & Family Medical Clinic! I am Doctor Marjan Saba, a board-certified Family Medicine Specialist. I have more than twenty years of experience in the Medical Field, fifteen of which I have been running my own office in Los Angeles. I have practiced medicine in the rural stretches of Iran with minimal medical technology as well as the highest level of advanced care in the heart of Los Angeles at the County General Hospital.
My reason for selecting Family Medicine as my specialty was to look at the human being as a whole, as opposed to a composition of body parts. I wanted to manage all of the medical needs of my patients and aid them in their healing process. I believe that mind, body, and spirit are one unit and to treat one is to treat all. I deeply care about all of my patients and take great pleasure in listening and discussing with them.
My office is truly like a second home to me and our whole team here at Friends & Family. While in our care, expect to be treated with the warmth and dignity you deserve. We are like family members to our patients as they are to us. We won’t leave you waiting, we’ll really listen to what you have to say, and we’ll treat you like our most valued patient because, well, you are!
Thank you so much for reading through the information on our site. After all, a better-informed patient is a better patient. Thank you for choosing Friends & Family Medical Clinic… welcome to the family!
