Unfortunately I was in an car accident in March of 2017 when my car was struck. After nearly an…read moreyear of frustration and horrific pain I was referred to Dr. Brindle. I am forever grateful for the recommendation I received from Dr. Stephen Hankins for Dr. Brindle. Parking can be difficult but thankfully they offer complimentary valet service. Dr. Brindle and his staff including his nurse practitioner Victoria Flower are wonderful. Dr. Brindle recommended that I have an laminectomy and microdisectomy due to the injury I sustained in which my L4-L5 disc was badly protruding and pressing on my nerve root. I was nervous because it required hospitalization. Dr. Brindle put me at ease. I was hospitalized one extra day for pain management and to ensure I could properly conquer the staircase at home. Appointments are easily made via phone. If you require surgery Dr. Brindle and his staff do an great job ensuring you have the proper follow up afterwards. The surgery I had was what has been the career killer for Tiger Woods and has plagued him. I went into things with the mindset this was an one shot deal because everyone I've encountered that's had multiple spine surgeries is miserable. I'm happy to say I'm doing great. I resumed walking right away and an week and an half post op I walked fifteen miles. I couldn't be happier and more thankful. I'm forever indebted to Dr. Brindle. I'm pain free and with the exception of some range of motion issues that may not improve I'm physically better than I have been in some time.

I filled out EIGHTEEN pages of medical history two weeks prior to my consultation to save MY time…read moreas well as the doctor's. Apparently my efforts failed. After introducing himself, Dr. Shahi took one hand and flipped through the bottom quarter of the pages, never actually looking at even one, then asking what brought me in. At first speechless, I sat there and then repeated everything I'd written--my medical saga. After my story (which he should've known), he recommended an injection (an "epidural," he explained after I said I thought those were for women in labor). No, he said. Okay, I then asked, "Does it contain Cortisone?" YES, he replied. I was stunned. He was getting ready to inject me with a drug listed as one of my two allergies. He hadn't even bothered to look. What kind of doctor would be so negligent? If I could give less than one star, I would. Run, don't walk, from this doctor.

Dr. Seminer was the WORST neurologist I've ever seen before. He injected me with Botox for…read moremigraines (had migraines for years now), and he overdosed me and incorrectly injected. I now have a permanent droopy eyelid/eyebrow and issued with my temples and sensitivity all the time causing a new kind of migraine I've never experienced. I would not recommend him or this office to anyone. He also just wanted to toss medications at me the first visit (as most doctors do), but I felt there was no actual care from the doctor, just very robotic and on to the next type of personality. I did not feel comfortable with him and the office would not approve any transfer of care to another neurologist after this. Only to a nurse practitioner to continue injections (I stopped due to this experience). Trust me, find anyone else..

This is a mixed review. I give 5 stars to Dr, H. Aliabadi…read more But give 0 stars to staff. When I saw the doctor at his Auburn office, there were no staff present. Dr. Aliabadi greeted me and was very friendly. He answered all my questions and was very professional. He then was to have his staff send a referral for me to go to UCSF. Over a week past, so I called his office. The person that answered said another staff member had called and actually talked to me twice. I told her I never received the calls or talked to anyone nor did I receive any messages. I questioned her about not receiving the calls and that is when her voice elevated. At the end of the call, I told her she did not have to be so rude and she said it was me that was rude and hung up on me. I have been an RN for over 40 years. I have worked with patients and their families, never have I treated any of my patient in this manner. Nor would the facility I work for tolerate or allow such behavior. My recommendation is to go see the Dr. Aliabadi, he is awesome. However, he should send his staff to a class on how to be professional and treat patients with dignity. Or hire a professional staff that can. Dr. Aliabadi if you did this, your reviews would be a glowing 5 stars.

His bedside manner is always phenomenal and treats you like family. He listens and is super patient with us and my daughter who has a genetic disorder and epilepsy. Their EEG tech-so sorry I forgot her name, she is also incredible. Usually my daughter fights when they put eeg wires on but with her, my 6 year old daughter is mostly calm because EEG tech is so sweet & friendly- she's also super fast and efficient that it's a breeze when my daughter has to get her wires on and get taken off with her. The girls in the front are always fast when it comes to paperwork and giving messages to Dr. Raina- they are always polite & friendly.
