I love his assistant she so funny great to speak to Dr. Amin was great very detailing helping my husband get back to his health definitely recommend him
March 17, 2021Woodian T.Verified patient
He sat on the edge of his chair as if he couldn't wait to go to the next patient. I wanted to discuss on how too reduce my BP and get off medication and he had nothing to contribute. He just said just keep taking it and we will check later. I asked what markers he would need so I can be taken off the medication and he just said just keep taking it and we will see next time. Not into improving health outcomes just writing prescriptions. I chose him because of his bio, he was a runner(I am a runner) and talked about healthful lifestyle but yet couldn't have a conversation about it. Disappointed....
More than 1 year agoLinda L.Verified patient
Dr. Amin was super nice. He explained and answered all my questions. I felt that he really cares about his patients and want to make sure that they feel well. He spent the time asking questions, learning the medical issue that brought me to see him and gave different treatments alternatives.

Very professional and knowledgeable. He didn’t seems very friendly. He was slightly cold and short. Maybe he was having a bad day?

Dr Amin listens to your concerns and explains what is going on or what could potentially be going on.
On a CoVID related note, the office on 14th st is doing a great job with precautions.
August 12, 2020Shannon D.Verified patient
I did a lot of waiting for an initial visit, heart monitor and echo. I also didn't get any follow up information, I had to contact the clinic and wait for his call...
On the upside the echo technician was incredible even though I found the procedure surprisingly painful.

Phenomenal Doctor's office. Registration was quick. Wait time was less than 20 mins and once i was in the exam room i saw the doctor quickly. Dr. Amin talked me through what was going on and i felt a lot better after the visit.
I never wish for anyone to have to see a doctor, but if you do this is the one.
February 24, 2020Dylan A.Verified patient
