Omar Hussain, Dr

5.0

Jul 5, 2025

Several months ago I met Dr. Hussain in the emergency department of Cedars Sinai Hospital. I had a laceration over my right eyebrow that had just happened as a result of a fall.

Everyone said, "you need stitches and you need a plastic surgeon." After finishing a surgery Dr. Hussain came to the Emergency Department introduced himself, examined me and explained very clearly what he planned to do and answered my questions. He did something else-- very important. He established a relationship of trust. After some probing of the wound and an injection of anesthesia, Dr. H began to sew me back together and I talked the entire time— processing what had happened. I will soon be 84 and I have rarely met a physician with whom I felt such an immediate connection. I could tell I mattered to him as a whole person, not just another procedure to do before he clocked out for the day. So, in addition to a high level of skill and expertise, this is a physician who cares about his patients.
