Jeffrey H. Sherman, MD

I hate doctors and generally have to be dying before I will go. After suffering through an ulcer the last year I finally went to see Dr Sherman, he immediately put me at ease. He has a great bedside manner and seemed like he genuinely cared about what was going on. He’s very competent and a all around good guy. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Sherman has great bedside manner and a lot of compassion for his patients. He listens and knows how to get you to open up about difficult health circumstances. He did my colonoscopy a year ago and I’ve been checking in ever since to keep up with my health. It’s not easy seeing someone for stomach issues, but he makes the experience less scary, stressful, and embarrassing. If you want a calm GI doctor who will listen to you, he’s your guy.

I had a procedure done at the Specialty Surgical Center by Dr. Sherman. Extraordinary! The front desk young lady was charming. The nursing staff is sensational! Dr. Sherman is a seasoned pro and I highly recommend him. Also, my anesthesiologist Dr. Ivan Brooks demonstrated an excellent bedside manner and showed greats kill and professionalism. Really pleased…

Dr. Sherman is the perfect combination of down to earth and friendly bedside manner with smarts and intelligence of a modern physician. His office is located in the towers at Cedar-​Sinai, conveniently located to labs and imaging centers if you need any testing.
I met Dr. Sherman during a very difficult time in my medical case, a time when I was new to the hospital… I had done a horrible job of keeping old medical records (ie – I had none of them), and my case was (unfortunately for me) extraordinarily unusual, therefore many doctors weren’t interested in helping…
From the moment I met him, Dr. Sherman had the patience, and compassion, to listen to my never ending constant complaints. And trust me – when I say never ending, I friggen mean it. It’s never going to end. He’s worked through countless problems with me, treating each new stumbling block with the tender blend of curiosity and understanding.
Dr. Sherman works in the same office as his father, Dr. James Sherman, whose been a physician at Cedars since the 1970s. It creates a warm and welcoming environment. I’m always joking with Dr. Sherman «if your father had been a mechanic, you would have been a mechanic». Dr. Sherman didn’t get into medicine for the money, he got into medicine because it’s the family business, and so he has no ego or power games that so many other doctors.
If you need a simple check up, or if you have an ongoing and never ending chronic illness, Dr. Sherman is the doctor to see. My stomach problems never end – they change, they’ve evolved over the years, and I will continue to have new problems (as long as I am lucky enough to stay on the planet), and Dr. Sherman is always there to help… thank god.
