He very easy to talk to.
Josef Parvizi has been my doctor for a decade. I have been blessed by this gifted doctor who is the specialist of specialists. He’s not giving up on me until I am seizure free, so I am game for anything he wants to try. I feel cared for and cared about. He sat by my bedside for 12 hours after a grueling surgery that made me have seizures for 24 hours straight. I am grateful I don’t know anyone in my situation, but if I did, I would send them straight to Dr.Parvizi. He is not just a great doctor, he is also a great person.
It was so comforting to see Dr. Parvizi again in person! He is so kind, intelligent and understands how epilepsy takes a toll on not just the physical body, but the whole family. Thank you!
Dr. Parvizi is the best neurologist that I have ever encountered for my son. It took 20 years to finally be given a name for his seizure disorder. It took Dr. parvizi only two days of testing and now with the correct medications my son is improving tremendously. We are so grateful to Dr. Parvizi for giving our son a better quality of life. I can’t express enough the peace he has given our family as well. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you Dr. Parvizi.
He is a good doctor.
