Dr. Maryam Ardalan, MD?
OB/GYN Dr. Maryam Ardalan of Women Elite Care, Inc. in Valencia, California, chose her life-long career path when she was only thirteen years old. Her passion for helping heal members of her community made her pursue medical training. She attended the West Azerbaijan University of Medical Sciences in Iran. During her medical externship, she began to love the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology. She was fascinated by how educating and treating women would help them live long and healthy lives.
Once she finished her externship, Dr. Ardalan completed four years of residency training as an OB/GYN. She graduated with honors and began working with diagnosing and treating infertile couples. Throughout the years she has participated in multiple research projects involving infertility.
Following completion of residency training in Iran, Dr. Ardalan began work in the rural areas of Northwestern Iran. She later had the opportunity to participate in an OB/GYN clinical rotation in Vienna, Austria for a year.
After finishing her rotation in Austria, she immigrated to the United States with her family. Her love and dedication to Obstetrics and Gynecology gave her the drive to successfully complete the Medical Board examinations and re-enter four years of residency at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. Upon completion, she started a position at the University of San Francisco as an assistant professor in the department of OB/GYN for two years where she was tasked with instructing medical students and residents. Dr. Ardalan moved to Valencia, California, shortly after and has been working in the area since 2009.
Dr. Ardalan’s mission is to provide quality medical care in a professional, supportive, and loving environment.

Thank you so much I appreciate the wonderful care of all the staff especially Dr Ardalan and I appreciate the safe comfort comforting environment It's very helpful because going to the doctor can be very scary But it's very important to get checked up
I have been a patient of Dr. Ardalan for about 5 years. The last two years with only needing to come in for annual exams to see the nurse practitioner Yenny Salim. The dreaded paps are not something I look forward to and actually I love how quick the NP is vs Dr. Ardalan when when it comes to physical exams. I am 47 and had been experiencing textbook, perimenopausal symptoms; hair thinning, irregular periods, insomnia, mood swings, increased anxiety, decreased libido, brain fog, fatigue, heart palpitations. I felt more stress than normal, and went from 128 lbs to 145, with a normal diet and exercise routine as well as suddenly having slightly elevated BP. High blood pressure does not run in my family, I do not drink or smoke and eat a balanced diet, so as you can imagine I was confused. Dr. Ardalan is the only one that does HRT consultations, so after some research to accept it may be time, I made an appointment to be immediately dismissed. I was told since I wasn't having hot flashes or night sweats she doesn't normally give HRT, not taking into consideration that not every woman experiences night sweats and hot flashes. I was gaslit me further that I was too young, offering me anxiety meds and hormonal testing. We segued into questions about me not having a period since Dec 2025 and it was the end of Feb 2026. She ordered a pregnancy test; negative. I haven't been on birth control for about 2 years. She asked if I was using condoms, "No". She seemed confused that I wasn't sexually active, not only is the dating pool a cesspool, I have zero desire. I confirm that I am celibate. She recommends that should be on something to prevent pregnancy and we discussed me getting back on the Mirena IUD, that has some progesterone which would help with my symptoms as well as protect me from pregnancy. I ask about pain management in the placement of the IUD. Even in 2026 after multiple studies from the National Institute of Health, Harvard Health, the Washington Post, the American Medical Women's Association, I could go on about the lack of women's pain management, she suggests Ibuprofen for the "discomfort". I am insistent it is an extremely painful procedure for me, that and I felt like I was going to pass out the last time. I advocate for myself that ibuprofen is nowhere near sufficient for that procedure. After pressing her more she did offer something to "soften" the cervix, but again nothing for pain management. Why is it for a vasectomy men get, local anesthesia like lidocaine , they are offered opioids and sedatives like Diazepam at the slightest discomfort or thought of pain. Women get gaslighted as though we either don't feel pain, it's slight discomfort, or we can tough it out, no that shit hurts. Dr. Ardalan in the 5 years I've been a patient has been no different, she has dismissed my symptoms, the idea that I am in active prerimenopause, or that my pain warrants anything more than an OTC medication. She doesn't seem up to date, or interested in studies that recommend that women seek HRT treatment ideally before age 60 and if possible 10 years before the onset of full menopause. Nor did she seem versed in not only the need for women's pain management, but the importance. My experience with Dr. Ardalan has been beyond disappointing ESPECIALLY given she is a female doctor. It is why I chose her and you'd think she'd not only relate, but be an advocate for her female patients. I thought she would listen to my concerns to be seen and heard and maybe make some changes to how she has operated in the past. I am currently looking for another doctor, but unfortunately feel that this is a systemic issue due to gender bias, lack of sex research, stereotypes, intersectionality and normalizing pain to dismiss women's credibility, and pain tolerance in women's health. I did complete my hormone testing confirming my gut feeling, that my it is not a thyroid, glucose, or cortisol issue (all normal) that indeed my estrogen (estradiol/fillitropin) levels are that of a women that is post menopausal. If I were trying to have a baby, I'd be infertile. My case is individual, it is not a one size fits all case, and my concerns are valid , I will be following up and advocating for myself for HRT treatment, as well as pain management as every patient should to speak up to help others who find themselves in a similar state of frustration and disappointment with level of care. It is the responsibility of Dr. Ardalan and ALL doctors to prioritize patient care wither it is staying up to date by attending conventions, classes, and further education on women's health and studies that are saying there is a clear disparity in women's experience and treatment to make changes within her practice. It is barbaric to have a doctor, especially a female one refuse pain management beyond Tylenol or Ibuprofen for an IUD in 2026.
My adult autistic daughter and I came in for our well women exams and the doctor was wonderful with my daughter. She went over everything step by step and made sure she could stop at any time if she became uncomfortable. My daughter felt comfortable with her to complete her first well women exam. I highly recommend this practice as the staff and doctor were all very welcoming.
Not long of a wait this time and staff very helpful
Great office Dr Ardalan is wondering she takes her time and lesson to your concerns.
Dismissive and offers unhelpful and irrelevant alternatives to pain issues
Great Office great OB Dr.Maryam Ardalan i had the best experience during my pregnancy and delivery the Nurses was always smiling and so helpful with everything always making sure i am ok thank you giving me a better and relax, pregnancy
I cannot recommend Dr. Ardalan highly enough. From the very first appointment through delivery, I felt completely supported, heard, and cared for. Dr. Ardalan combines exceptional medical expertise with genuine kindness and compassion, which made such a difference during my pregnancy.
The office is new and clean. The staff is friendly. Office Parking is easy. I did wish the doctor was a bit more friendly/personal and wanting to discuss my history prior to the exam. The exam was painful and she was aware of that and took steps, but was a bit shocked. While uncomfortable in the past, never had pain before in any exam with any other doctor, nor mild bleeding afterwards. If she had talked to me first, it may have been helpful to know I have not had children and other conditions. Yet the subsequent biopsy was painless and felt safe during the process. Thr report came by phone call and wa I. Time friendly and informative. Originally I , was looking for a more personal and inquiry touch. The personal came with subsequent visits. Her medical background appears to be thorough and the experience is helpful. She was recommended by a friend.
Very nice

I was a bit intimidated by the offering of cosmetic services at a women’s health clinic at first. If you feel the same way, don’t let this dissuade you from going in! Working with the staff and Dr. Ardalan will make you feel seen and heard. My experience was that staff were efficient and friendly! Ashley and Olivia were both warm and professional. Dr. Ardalan was thorough and fast, always checking in with me and not making me feel rushed. She, too, was compassionate and warm—which is so crucial in an OBGYN office.
Excellent service!
