I just want to say that my appointment today gave me hope. She really listened to what has been going on with me, gave me a treatment plan, and really made me feel like there was hope and life outside of my condition. One of the best gastrointestinal doctors I have seen.

My experience with Nidah Khakoo at Wellstar Gastroenterology - Cherokee Health Park was absolutely phenomenal. After having a very different experience with another provider recently, seeing her genuinely felt life-changing. From the moment she walked in, she was warm, charismatic, kind, and incredibly attentive. I had done a lot of research and came prepared with questions, concerns, and a detailed history of what I had been experiencing. Instead of dismissing that or making me feel like I was overthinking things, she acknowledged it, validated my concerns, and truly listened. She would ask questions, remember details I had mentioned earlier, and circle back to make sure everything was addressed. She made sure every question I had was answered before the visit was over. I never felt rushed. What meant the most to me was that she respected my desire to take a conservative approach first rather than immediately jumping to an endoscopy. She listened to what I was comfortable with, explained her reasoning, performed a thorough physical examination, and worked with me to develop a plan that I felt comfortable following. As a woman, there have been times when I have felt that my symptoms or concerns were not fully understood or taken seriously in healthcare. I did not feel that way for one second with Nidah. She looked me in the face, listened to what I was saying, believed what I was experiencing, and treated me like an active participant in my own care. I am incredibly thankful that I found her. Her kindness, compassion, thoroughness, and willingness to truly listen made such a difference for me. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a gastroenterology provider who genuinely cares about her patients and takes the time to understand the whole picture. Thank you, Nidah, for making me feel heard, respected, and cared for.

I am very excited to meet the doctor in person. I was very comfortable with her. I enjoyed our visit over the phone very much and I have already recommended her to most of my neighborhood.

August 15, 2026

She was so understanding and gave you choices.

August 14, 2026

Dr. Khakoo was amazing. I've had few providers who take such a genuine interest, listen well, provide so much feedback, and just approach patient care with such thoroughness!

August 13, 2026

Dr. Khakoo is the best physician!!! She is knowledgeable and treated me with respect. She explained everything in terms I could understand. I would highly recommend her!!!

For over four years, I have been suffering from a G.I. issues! After countless procedures and appointments I came back with no relief and no answers. Today Dr. Khakhoo made me feel heard! Explained things and for the first time I have hope in getting better!!! I can't tell you how blessed I feel to having finally get a Doctor on GI that gets it and knows her stuff

July 29, 2026

Dr. Khakoo was kind, and truly listened to me. Male nurse with curly hair was up beat and friendly. Ladies upfront were a bit reserved so was nervous going forward but the medical team in back was good.

July 29, 2026

5

I must say the doctor is amazing. She listened to my concerns and she explained everything throughly. Very happy to have found her

July 26, 2026

5

I wish I could give her a 15/10. She not only listened to me, she heard me. She gave me her full attention and understood not only what I was saying but also what I wasn't. She made it clear we're going to work together to get answers and while there's no immediate life-threatening type concern presenting, we still have to solve whatever is at the root of it all. Her patience, professionalism, and empathy are second to none. First time in the past 7 months of struggling and self-advocacy I felt like I finally have found someone who understood and cares enough to help. I didn't feel dismissed; I felt supported. That was profound.

July 25, 2026

Dr. khakoo was a wonderful, extremely warm & knowledgeable gastroenterologist & I felt totally confident and safe after her consultation. She explained every aspect of my tests & results in a manner I understood. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Dr. Khakoo was kind, and truly listened to me. Male nurse with curly hair was up beat and friendly. Ladies upfront were a bit reserved so was nervous going forward but the medical team in back was good.

I must say the doctor is amazing. She listened to my concerns and she explained everything throughly. Very happy to have found her

I wish I could give her a 15/10. She not only listened to me, she heard me. She gave me her full attention and understood not only what I was saying but also what I wasn't. She made it clear we're going to work together to get answers and while there's no immediate life-threatening type concern presenting, we still have to solve whatever is at the root of it all. Her patience, professionalism, and empathy are second to none. First time in the past 7 months of struggling and self-advocacy I felt like I finally have found someone who understood and cares enough to help. I didn't feel dismissed; I felt supported. That was profound.

My experience with Nidah Khakoo at Wellstar Gastroenterology - Cherokee Health Park was absolutely phenomenal. After having a very different experience with another provider recently, seeing her genuinely felt life-changing. From the moment she walked in, she was warm, charismatic, kind, and incredibly attentive. I had done a lot of research and came prepared with questions, concerns, and a detailed history of what I had been experiencing. Instead of dismissing that or making me feel like I was overthinking things, she acknowledged it, validated my concerns, and truly listened. She would ask questions, remember details I had mentioned earlier, and circle back to make sure everything was addressed. She made sure every question I had was answered before the visit was over. I never felt rushed. What meant the most to me was that she respected my desire to take a conservative approach first rather than immediately jumping to an endoscopy. She listened to what I was comfortable with, explained her reasoning, performed a thorough physical examination, and worked with me to develop a plan that I felt comfortable following. As a woman, there have been times when I have felt that my symptoms or concerns were not fully understood or taken seriously in healthcare. I did not feel that way for one second with Nidah. She looked me in the face, listened to what I was saying, believed what I was experiencing, and treated me like an active participant in my own care. I am incredibly thankful that I found her. Her kindness, compassion, thoroughness, and willingness to truly listen made such a difference for me. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a gastroenterology provider who genuinely cares about her patients and takes the time to understand the whole picture. Thank you, Nidah, for making me feel heard, respected, and cared for.

I just want to say that my appointment today gave me hope. She really listened to what has been going on with me, gave me a treatment plan, and really made me feel like there was hope and life outside of my condition. One of the best gastrointestinal doctors I have seen.
