It dosent take a real expert to realize doctor Jahan may need to be checked on herself. She has an attitude beyond imaginable. For god sakes im coming for your advice, not to get yelled at! I will never walk back into her office again, I can assure you this is not where you want to go! Take your money and your health issues to someone who actually makes you feel important.

I have been a patient of Dr. Jahan’s for over a year. I was referred to her after suffering a stroke. She began treatment by performing an examination that fully characterized my overall condition, established a baseline of my condition and began a treatment program that was a combination of rehabilitation and stabilization of my condition to reduce the likelihood of another stroke. I liked that approach and the desired outcome. Her professional approach and treatment plan was very reassuring. Her office staff is equally effective in dealing with their workload. While on a trip I found myself running low on medications and called her office. The staff phoned a “Bridge” prescription to a local pharmacy and I picked it up and didn’t miss taking a prescribed medication on time.

The most compassionate and respectful physician I have ever met. I am so happy to have found Dr. Jahan. She sat with me and answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns. The staff is great and works with you to ease your worries.

My mother has recently become a patient of Dr Jahan's for treatment of neck pain and numbness in her arm following a traffic accident. Since I live out of state from my mother, I wanted to get some feedback on her new Dr. I must say I was very concerned by some of the comments posted on this site, but also realize that people are often more likely to speak out when they have a complaint than when they are completely satisfied. Nevertheless, I felt it was important for me to get a first hand impression of my mother's care, since the last thing I wanted was for someone to just overmedicate her with strong pain pills and send her home to stumble around and possibly fall! I planned a visit to my mother to accompany her to her next appt with Dr. Jahan and what a relief! She was courteous-referring to my mother as "madame"-she was professional and knowledgeable. Best of all she is helping my mother get relief from her pain and numbness without the risks of narcotics for an older patient!

After having read the reviews on Dr. Jahan, I was skeptical to become her patient. However a friend of mine, who went through a series of inexperienced and impolite neurologists before finding Dr. Jahan, strongly encouraged me to visit her. I now can thank my friend for introducing me to the most compassionate and thorough physician I have ever met. Dr. Jahan made my condition her primary concern. While treating me she also focused on building a patient-physician relationship with me which made me view her as trustworthy and responsible. I think that those who have rude and incorrect statements to make about Dr. Jahan where probably seeking narcotics or false sick leaves/ immigration forms as opposed to real treatment and after Dr. Jahan was able to see right through their motives they in turn wrote such false reviews as a form of revenge. My response is to take my advice: if you are looking for an intelligent, caring, and thorough neurologist go to Dr. Jahan.

Having accompanied my wife to an appointment with Dr. Sheila Jahan, I would like to honestly ask: what is this woman doing in the medical profession? My wife was experiencing a tingling sensation in her arms and legs and wanted to be examined. When Dr. Jahan entered the room, she started firing questions quickly at my wife. My wife, who is not a native speaker of English and was very distraught about her condition, tried to answer as best as she could. The first time my wife did not understand Dr. Jahan (who also has a thick foreign accent), yelled at her and proceeded to interview me concerning my wife's condition!!! After firing three questions at me, she preformed the most perfunctory neurological exam imaginable (i.e. can you move your legs and arms?) and stormed out of the room saying my wife should see a psychiatrist. I was appalled!!!!!

I have been seeing Dr. Jahan since 2007. Thankfully she has some new staff now and they are much better. They recognize regular patients and are efficient and capable. Dr. Jahan is a godsend. I see her for chronic migraines which greatly interfered with my life before she helped me. She stepped in where other doctors had let me down, ran a battery of tests in order to ensure that there were no life threatening problems, and got me on a regular course of medication to treat them. She insists on regular annual checkups to adjust the medication if necessary and to check on any side effects. I find her manner to be professional, caring, and compassionate, and she has a good sense of humor. In fact, she is my favorite doctor.

As the nurse walked me back, I asked, “where are your business license and the doctor’s credentials”. The nurse walked out of the room and said, “oh they are here, she took me to a blank wall, than she said “oh no it’s not here let me get the doctor”. When the doctor arrived I knew than something was wrong because she was hostile. So,I asked “where are your business license and your medical credentials”? She said “in my office in Alexandria”, I said, “well I need to see them before you can provide services to my son”. She became Irate and said “leave my office now”, I said “I am”. On my way out, I asked the receptionist for the doctors card and a pen, by that time doctor Jahan was behind me screaming “get out get out”. When I got outside I realized she had my check and the forms that I filled out with my social security number on them so, I wanted it back. I called the police so they could help me retrieve these things. The Dr. lacked the care and compassion doctors posses.
