Yes, I was very impressed with the staff. They were very nice. The nurse was very nice, very thorough. The doctor, I was impressed with him. He took his time with me and told me a lot of information that I was not familiar with and I will definitely refer him and be happy to go back to him. Thank you.

I liked how efficient the front desk was at finding my information even from Kenistone as being affiliated with WellStar. Even when I wasn't able to find it at the time, even though I could bring it to her earlier, she was still able to find it before I could. My experience with the doctor was great. He listened to everything and came up with a lot of solutions and or tests that I didn't even think about or know about. So overall, honestly, everything was great. I think it was good. And I'm excited to see the next direction that we end up going with this.

From check in to check out everyone was friendly and professional. I had almost no wait time before being called back. The physician listened, and I felt confident in his recommendations. I have tests and a follow up scheduled. I took his business card on the way out and gave it to my manager, who was currently looking for a neurologist.

Everyone was fantastic from office staff, to Victor to Dr. Kheder. Dr. Kheder was thorough in his exam, listened to my health concerns while allowing my input, and explained everything in a manner that was scientific but also at a level that was understandable. He created an action plan for the symptoms I have been experiencing and how we will work on a diagnosis. This is the first healthcare provider in a long time who has not written me off. Thank you so much.

I have had migraines all my life and many people have tossed my worries aside. I thought there was nothing I could do to find treatment, but Dr. Kheder has given me the push I needed to keep trying. Hopefully, together we are able to finally find answers to the cause of my migraines and ways to treat them. I'm extremely grateful and excited to be working with Dr. Kheder for my care.
