Swedish Patient
Dr Khemani is an amazing person and Dr and am lucky to have him to help me with my Parkinson symptoms-
Swedish Patient
My provider was very thorough explaining what he'll be doing during each visit for my routine care and when I had a bad side effect I had no problem getting in touch with his nurse to speak to me about it. I always look forward to my appointments because each one is quick to be seen and both his assistant and my provider treat me with the utmost respect. I only wish all doctors visits were this way.

It was very challenging to get an appointment from the time I received the referral from my PCP. It took several months. Once I saw the provider it provided me comfort, but awaiting to discuss results and next steps as the MRI results were frightening.
