Hormoz Zahiri, MD

Very disappointed by this renowned doctor. Years ago he would at least see you for 15 minutes, now he rushes for 5 minutes and charges you a minimum of $ 350. It’s become all about money with little regard for your health. Time to retire and leave the business for younger more compassionate doctors.

Been a patient of Dr. Hormoz Zahiri for a number of years. As a result of excessive computer use, I developed a cyst in the 4^th finger, had Carpal tunnel syndrome & nerve damage in both hands. Years later, had sprained ankle & knee injuries. He is a great caring doctor. He dealt w my numerous ailments in a conservative way, which i appreciated, as i dreaded rushing into unnecessary surgery. He administered the minimum dose of Cortizone shot, with full disclosure & my consent; I was grateful to be finally pain free & did not experience any adverse side effects from the shot… I had a positive experience, considering my numerous incidents & visits to his office. I would highly recommend Dr. H. Zahiri.

I was a patient of Dr Zahiri at another location and all I can say is run, do not walk out of his office if you want a proper diagnosis and treatment. I injured my back and neck at work and all they did was an xray of my lower back, when I needed to have a mri of both my neck and back, which I asked for on multiple occasions. For a year I did cortisone injections, physical therapy, acupuncture and was prescribed weak medications for the amount of pain I was in. The final straw was when he suggested my muscle spasms were because caused by changes in the weather and because I was stressed. I finally switched doctors and my new doctor asked me where were my MRIs and I told him I didn’t have them and he thought I meant I forgot the cd at home, but I had to explain that my previous doctor never ordered them. The new doctor was in shock and asked how he diagnosed me without the proper diagnostic tests. I finally have a real diagnosis because of what the MRI revealed and I have to have spinal surgery.

BE CAREFUL going to Dr. HORMOZ ZAHIRI! He misdiagnosed me and had me get cortizone injections twice at his office while I am 7 months pregnant. His office insisted I pay them up front for the injections and services rather than they first bill my blue cross and bill me which is how its done everywhere else. HE IS A $$$$$$$$ DOCTOR! I went to him for a 2^nd opinion and showed him my x-​rays in which a previous doc told me I have 2 fractures and I need to wear a boot but he said the complete OPPOSITE. He said I DO NOT need to wear a boot and that it is not broken rather just pulled ligaments and cortizone shots and physical therapy will make it all better. After seeing no results; I decided to go to Dr. Glen Phreffer and got an MRI. It turns out I DID HAVE A FRACTURE AND WOULD OF HEALED IF I WORE THE BOOT. He made me go through UNNECESSARY PAIN for 3 days everytime I got those cortizone injections while pregnant just so he can collect some $$$$. THIS DOCTOR IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY! DO NOT GO TO HIM. WAS VERY RUDE LATER WHEN I TOLD HIM THAT I WAS MISDIAGNOSED.
