“She was absolutely great, very patient and thorough in making sure she got my entire past medical history. Very confident and smart doctor would definitely see her again .”
Avi M.January 27, 2020
“The day before the appointment, she had to reschedule my 10am consultation to 4pm, but her office was very accommodating with alternate times. The staff was very nice. It seemed like it was a busy day when I got there, but Dr. Fatimi came out and Rome’s me in herself. ”

More than 1 year agoInitials hiddenVideo visit
Dr Fatimi knowingly withheld medication that I need to sleep on May 27, 2020 leading to a sleepless night of uncontrolled leg spasms whenever I sat or laid down (see video). She insisted on a visit even though this is a maintenance med that I've been taking for 10 years and I moved out of state. Under pressure I agreed to the teledoc visit as long as she could do it that day so I could get my medication. I didn't hear back until the next day.
I would avoid Dr. Fatimi unless you are cool with forced, unnecessary visits.
I couldn't upload the video here but it shows how long it takes from laying down to uncontrolled spasms (< 3 minutes). I was forced to walk around like a zombie all night and go to work the next day in this condition because of Dr. Fatimi.

November 7, 2019Morgan G.Verified patient
Dr. Fatimi was professional, yet warm. She made me feel very comfortable and was completely clear in her explanations about what she thought. While she was fairly sure about her diagnosis based on her office exam of me, I appreciated that she sent me for a CT test to fully confirm her thoughts and rule out any possible complications. I feel fortunate to have found her during a condition I was a bit worried about. She put my mind at ease, yet was honest. I felt I was in very capable hands and would highly recommend.

Great explanation, and tailoring of treatment. Very efficient - spending the time but no unnecessary chatter! Great experience
April 23, 2019Samuel S.Verified patient
Dr Fatimi was great - she was very thorough and reviewed all of my medical history from start to finish. She also requested my prior scans/tests to ensure she is providing the most accurate recommendations moving forward.
March 28, 2019Mckenna P.Verified patient
Dr. Fatima is friendly, knowledgable, answers questions, is calm, and a very quick diagnostician. Not only did she respond to my questions, but asked careful and precise questions of her own. It was a real pleasure going to the appointment. Her expertise and kindness were heartily appreciated. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding neurologist.

Dr. Fatimi struck me as a very sharp and intelligent person. The questions she asked me seemed thought out and methodical. She also wrote down my answers, which made me feel like she was really absorbing what I was saying, which some doctors don't do. She prescribed me medication for my migraines and already it has stopped three migraines in their tracks! She has prevented me from having my usual 24 hour migraines and I'm so thankful for her. I recommend her for sure, her bedside manner is gentle but you really get the feeling that she is so intelligent and trustworthy.

Dr. Fatimi is easy to speak with, she listens and ask questions. I'm dealing with a complex health issue that's not the obvious. The appointment served its purpose, by ruling things in and out, and by pointing me in the right direction to another type of specialist that may be better suited to deal with my condition.

Yes I would recommend Dr, Tanya Fatimi, she is a very professional and sweet person. Great personality, took her time to answer all my questions and a through examination.
March 28, 2018Guillermo C.Verified patient
I had a concussion from a snowboarding accident and Dr. Fatimi was a comfort to have for an injury where the scariest thing is not knowing the severity. She had a great bedside manner and was patient in explaining additional symptoms that might arise. As the symptoms were still in the early stages, we monitored it for a few days to determine whether additional steps needed to be taken. She was super helpful in providing me with a number to contact her just in case and she called a few days later just to make sure I was doing well!

Dr. Fatimi was immediately dismissive of all of my symptoms. Unlike other physicians who work with the patient in a partnership, Dr. Fatimi sought to label me as a difficult patient with "anxiety". She was aggressive, and I would not return. She also made sure that my medical record showed "anxiety" which is problematic for seeing other physicians within the same system as many will not believe my symptoms.

I felt really healthy after talking to her
March 2, 2017Munira D.Verified patient
Initially warm and receptive but ultimately unhelpful and would not recommend. The last straw was when I was her finally appointment of the day, and she clearly wanted to leave the office, practically completely dismissing my concerns and questions at my final visit. I found another neurologist with a better understanding of my neurological issues.

Had an excellent appointment with Dr. Fatimi. After spending 5 mins with me, she was able to diagnose a condition that my primary care physician had missed. She's highly professional and courteous, with a great bedside manner. Highly recommend.
