I found Sheila for my uncle whom lives in VA for help. Dr. Sheila was totally unprofessional, rude,…read moreunhelpful. All she was interested in was to keep charging my uncle's insurance. Things could've been done in one appointment she would stretch out to 3 or 4 so she could bill insurance more. She is an unethical and terrible doctor. I will be reporting her to the board. Stay away from her.

Avoid this office…read more Incompetent administration and a doctor who rushes you out the door while she double-books. I came to my appointment early to make sure I got all my paperwork done only to find out that they had booked another patient at the exact same time as me. This meant I had to wait way past my assigned time (even though my appointment was at the beginning of the day). When I was finally able to see the doctor, she rushed through speaking with me and barely explained what was wrong and what could be done before she ran out the door. After getting the run around with the administrative staff about setting up an offsite lab test over the next few days I decide to cancel all future appointments with this doctor and seek help elsewhere. At that point I thought my trouble with this office was over. I was wrong. The staff kept both of my appointments on record and I have now had to call twice to get them to cancel them. At this point I can't tell if incompetence reigns supreme in this office or if they like to hunt for cancellation fees.

Never have I been happier to have missed an appointment (huge slowdown on the highway due to an…read moreaccident). Thankfully, I was late enough that they had to reschedule my initial consultation. I say "thankfully" because I quickly found out that Integrated Neurology Services' billing department is entirely incompetent. When I first called to schedule my appointment, I gave them my full insurance member ID and insurance provider name, they supposedly checked my insurance info, and assured me that they accept my insurance. Turns out, they do not. If I had made it to my appointment on time, that SINGLE initial consultation would have cost $350. Completely unacceptable. Avoid this place at all costs.

Dr. Nayak is a complete GODSEND - he literally saved my life! When other doctors/physicians…read moredismissed my ongoing excruciating pain, Dr. Nayak was able to diagnose my condition right away and set up a plan that made more than perfect sense. I was admitted the same day, was able to be monitored overnight and be provided pain management, and had the surgery scheduled the following day - I am now pain-free, and I just can't thank Dr. Nayak enough! The front staff as well as the assistants/nurses are all so friendly, kind, and welcoming - I was also able to be squeezed in for an appointment, which really never happens with a specialist; the amount of compassion and empathy that this office has is amazing. All my follow-ups have been wonderful, and the office is very responsive in answering any questions/concerns. and/or providing refills on medication(s). If you're looking for a neurosurgeon, there is only one doctor you should be trying to get an appointment with, and that's Dr. Nayak. He is extremely kind, provides a breakdown of everything, answers all your questions, has the best bedside manners, is an expert, and he holds all these accolades/awards/recognitions. I was in great hands, and you will be, too! He is literally the BEST neurosurgeon, EVER! You won't regret seeing Dr. Nayak - I guarantee it!!! +ask for Dr. Nayak - he is the absolute best!!! +friendly staff +located at VHC +paid garage parking

I cannot speak to other surgeons, but I can about Dr. Kader…read more Do not use Dr. Kader as your surgeon. Though I was recommended a different surgeon, Dr. Murry, I went with Kader to get the surgery done before the 2016 year was out. I paid for that mistake. Kader made no major slipups, but in doing the C5-C6 fusion he ended up tightening the spaces around the foramina, the places where the nerves traveling to the arms and back exit the spine - even though I had told Kader that I was an active amateur musician, and that playing was a big part of my life. Within two weeks after the surgery I started noticing symptoms down my arms and into my hands that were not there before the surgery. Except for brief periods, they did not go away, and slowly grew worse and worse. Kader refused to see any problem and only told me to take more drugs - even a year and a half after the surgery. Finally, my pain doctor recommended Dr, Ellegala of Sonospine. Three months ago he opened up the spaces that Kader closed, and my hands already feel stronger and more dexterous than they have in years. Ellagala's surgery technique isn't covered by insurance, and I had to pay $30K, but he fixed Kader's bungle, so it was worth it. But I'd rather not have had to pay it in the first place. When you pick a surgeon, you want someone who is committed to doing the best he or she can for you. Abraham Kader is not that surgeon, so he is not the surgeon you want. Go with Murry if you can.

The most terrible Neurologist I have encountered in 20 years with a chronic condition…read more First, he is not up to date with treatments and possible medication combos. Second he interrupted me every two seconds, and word and was extremely condescending. He was literally laughing out loud at me when I said that I have problems sleeping with the c-pap sleep mask and said exactly this: "You're telling me here for a whole hour how unwell you feel due to lack of sleep, but you are not willing to sacrifice a little?!" Eh thanks doc, but it is not that I chose to be not able to sleep with the mask on - I simply CAN'T. And I had paid YOU to find a solution, but you weren't doctor enough to do so. At the end, before I left, he told me that it was all in my mind and that I am setting myself up for failure. What a great and understanding doctor.... NOT. Oh, and he also claimed that I never told him about a certain medication that I am taking, which was untrue, because I had told him about it in my first visit. I had it actually all spelled out to him, but if he wasn't so busy talking and joking instead of listening, he might have heard me say it. After 20 years with a chronic illness, I have become a pro at doing my homework, and I know how to do "doctor shopping", aka finding the best doctors in my area. And he is definitely non my list to keep, nor will I recommend him to anyone I know. A shame that he still works at Neurology Associates of Reston.
