This DR. misdiagnosed my daughter as having Tourette's. He put her on HALDOL at age 7. She slept 6 months away and gained 20 lbs. He never even asked for a follow up. He did talk about the novel he was writing. I say DO NOT USE THIS MAN WHO PRACTICES on children. He should have his license revoked.

My son has severe Tourettes Syndrome, Epilepsy, anxiety and other behavioral issues. He has been seeing Dr for 12 years. Once you get into a the routine of the office it goes smoothly. He has a great rapport with my son, and genuinely cares. He personally calls you back (before or after his office hours) to discuss any problems you may be having. I have taken my son to many neurologists including UCLA Neuro-psychiatric center, all send him back to Dr because they all feel he is the best Dr to cover my sons complex needs. I recommend him to ALL of my friends who need to see a neurologist, and feel he is a caring, insightful Dr who keeps himself educated on the most recent treatments and is also willing to try non traditional treatments if you request. Because he is so thorough and doesn't double book the time in the waiting room can feel long, but I have never been more than an Hour from enter to exit.

He is a great doctor. A bit fast during appointments but knowledgeable and no un needed testing

There is nothing good to say about this office, especially the doctor. If he did in fact complete a medical school, it was in a third world country, probably working on animals. Never, ever go to this doctor. I would use anyone else on the planet first. He is horrible.

I waited more than 3 months for my daughter's appointment.The office called 22 hours before the appointment to say we needed to reschedule, and tried to say they called a month ago.FALSE! My daughter, who suffers from debilitating headaches, is now expected to wait another 5 weeks for her appointment. Where is the health CARE?I have a child who suffers 5 or more days a week, who cries herself to sleep with pain or throws up from it, who now has to wait 5 more weeks when we have already waited more than 3 months. It is reprehensible!I had arranged things at work to accomodate her appointment, made arrangements to get her picked up early, and arranged how to get my son home from school. Now, I get to start all over again in April.If we ever get into the office, he might be a good doctor.As of right now, I am angry and frustrated.I asked for a referral to a different neurologist, but the medical group appears to only refer to him, so my daughter continues to suffer.

THE OFFICE STAFF IS EXTREMELY RUDE, I felt like the Doctor was leading us on by not ordering any tests, he would reschedule us over and over for evaluations that kept adding up to more money and very few answers.

Have a son with mild CP and seizure disorder. Dr. didn't take the time to realize or recommend that my son had CP. Ended up taking son to CP division at UCLA.

The dr. himself is ok, a bit full of himself & thinks he's funny but he's great with kids. The staff is HORRIBLE. Very rude & condiscending, impatient, they talk about other patients after they get off the phone w/them in front of people in the waiting room, just VERY VERY rude people, especially the one up front that you sign in with.
