Verified patient
He took the time to speak to me about my concerns.
I was overall displeased with this office. The bedside manner was terrible. He wrote off my concerns immediately and made me feel stupid for coming in. I got a skin poke test for allergies and that just confirmed to the doctor that there was no reason for me to me seeing an allergist (I only have seasonal allergies). I go to doctor offices a lot and I can handle someone telling me that a certain doctor is not the right fit for me, but I’ve never felt so insecure and combatted about my medical questions. I went ahead and cancelled my follow-up appointment.
I appreciated the explanations and action plan Dr. Shahlaee gave within the brief time we had on my daughter's history and her current symptoms/conditions. The team was very professional and overall a good experience that I would recommend.
Not the greatest bedside manner - comes in with his laptop/tablet, doesn’t make eye contact, is somewhat brusk and impersonal. Can be somewhat dismissive - Told him I was in perimenopause and he says I’m too young, even though the most common age is between 40-44. I have/had many other great providers - this was not one of them.
This doctor asked questions, listened carefully, and actually examined me before he offered thoughtful insights and diagnostic recommendations. He acknowledged my need for relief, and more importantly, my need for answers. He's brilliant and I plan to stick with him.
This is a great doctor. My mom had an unexplained rash over much of her body, and he was able to figure out that one of her new medications was causing the rash and was an allergic reaction. He clearly took an interest in getting to the bottom of things and not rushing patients thru his office. Highly recommend.
Verified patient
I had an outstanding experience with Dr. Shahlaee and the entire office staff. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed warmly and felt completely at ease. Dr. Shahlaee is not only highly knowledgeable but also takes the time to listen and explain everything thoroughly. The staff is professional, friendly, and efficient, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. I finally feel like I have a great plan in place for managing my allergies. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for expert care!
Verified patient
He actually spent time talking to me and getting to know my medical history versus just jumping to a conclusion. So far, he seems to be thorough.
Verified patient
I had a great experience with Dr. Shahlaee. After months of a persistent rash and seeing multiple doctors who were in a rush to see me out the door, he was truly a breath of fresh air. Dr. Shahlaee was friendly, patient, and would take time to think over my responses to his questions before deciding what to ask next. In a world where doctors increasingly appear to shun complicated cases to max out patient volume, I’m relieved to have finally found a doctor who is willing to put in the time and effort to root out what is causing my condition. I would 100% recommend Dr. Shahlaee.
This was my third visit to see Dr. Shahlahee and he was very professional, courteous and thorough all three times. My next visit will be in six months.
Verified patient
The visit was helpful. I learned a lot of useful information and determined what allergies I had. I was given multiple options to help reduce symptoms. The staff were all friendly. There was no wait time.
Verified patient
Great experience! The doctor saw our young daughter on time and everything was clearly explained. Would definitely come back and highly recommend!
The doctor completely ignored all of my concerns and was uninterested in even looking at the condition I came in for. I could have saved over 100 miles of driving and made it virtual if I'd known he wouldn't even look. He had horrible bedside manner (gruff, sarcastic) and totally dismissed everything I said about my condition. Although he is probably great at his other field (oncology) I do not think he cares very much about being an allergist. His apathy was palpable. Clean office, short wait time, friendly desk staff and immediate appointment -- but as far as actual treatment, I am feeling an acute case of buyer's remorse.
Nice staff and friendly. Refreshing! Finally a doctor that listens and explains clearly the issues probably causes and provides solutions for the health problems my mother has.
Verified patient
I was impressed with the Dr. and how well he listened to my concerns and did not seem to be in a hurry. That is unusual I have found these days. Also, the office staff were all very efficient and friendly.
