She's very rude and doesn't know how to properly speak to people. There's ways to say things without being a *****. Would never recommend her or her staff to anyone. Save your time and your tears. She would be a good doctor if it weren't for the side comments and disrespect. She's always in a rush and doesn't listen to anything you have to say. What a waste of time.

She is compassionate and an outstanding physician. She is honest with her patients (me) to get them (me) to do what is right for them (me).

NEVER see Dr. Hashemian, she should not even be a doctor. She is impatient, rude, always in a big rush, and refuses to refer you to a specailist when her total incompetence can not help you with what is wrong. She also tries to tell you you need to see her every 3 months for a simple basic pharmaceutical I have been on for 5 years. No one else has ever said this. She is a mean, incompetent, uncaring, con artist. DO NOT see her ever.

I am really surprised reading so many negative comments on this forum about Dr. Hashemian. I have a very positive view of her as a Dr. She diagnosed an ailment that turns out most Doctors misdiagnose. She is punctual. Always professional with me. She is very "down to business" - which works for me, but may not work with others it seems. I recommend her.

She took the time to listen to me. She was very caring and knowledgeable and was able to accurately diagnose me. She went over the lab results with me and explained to me what they meant. Every time I called her even on weekends I was able to reach her and talk to her regarding my progress. I could see that she just truly cares about people. I would definitely recommend her.

I feel like I need to do my own research in order to give myself a proper diagnosis. While she lets me ask questions, I have to remember them quickly and ask them one after the other because if feels like she is in a rush to leave the room. She also whited out a part of a lab test I had that indicated low iron levels and when I called her out on it she just said she didn't think it was important! She should not tamper when results, especially since I had the test done after suffering from low energy following a case of mono years ago.

My other doctor had moved offices and I was switched to Sara as my primary care physician.I thought that the manner she spoke to me with was very rude. She seemed extermely annoyed when i ask questions pertaing to my health. I felt nervous too ask her anything else and did have some more health question. I feel that u should not have to feel like this i a doctors office setting. I find her very unprofessional and would not recommend her. Shes need to start treating her patients with respect.

Dr Hashemian was aweful. I have been going to this practice for 10 years and was switched to her as my primary care DR. My original Dr left the practice. Dr Hashemian talked to me aweful, and seemed annoyed with any questions I asked. I would not go to this practice ever again. After going to another DR my questions were answered and my problem was figured out. Dr Hashemian was very unprofessional, and if she would have looked into my problem more she woudl have been able to figure out what was wrong. She was rushed and seemed to want to throw medicine at the problem. DRUGS are her answer to everything.

Forgot to give a prescription at one visit, at another gave me prescriptions she said were used mostly for migraine suppression and sleep aids, but in reality are anti-depressants and when I asked about side effects, she shrugged and said "some people get drowsy," completely leaving out a huge list of severe side effects. It wasn't until I got home and did research on my own that I found out about the side effects-- now I'm afraid to take them and do not ever want to go back to this doctor.
