Dr. Walid A Jaziri, MD

He is more about making money and doesn't bother getting to know his patients on a personal level. He is not willing to ...make the patient part of their own treatment plan. I'm in and out of the appointment itself in 5 minutes. But I wait in the waiting room for about 20 to 40 minutes before I see him. more details

Dr. Jaziri runs his office like an assembly line. I'd been going there for several years but had to leave. I am an educa...ted professional with good health insurance who had some depression after going through a few personal tragedies. Jaziri often tried to talk down to me in a "there, there, you silly patient" kind of way. If I asked him questions about why he was prescribing something or why he wouldn't write a refill on the RX, he made up answers (which changed each time) or became agitated that I dared question him. The truth is, he never even speak to me; he simply wrote the prescriptions as I sat there in silence. He tried to write "no refills" on the RX paper and I have to remind him to write a refill. Then, he wrote only one. Other doctors have given me 2-4 refills and wanted to see me only every 3-4 months for a follow-up visit (same meds). Why do YOU suppose he wanted to see me every 4 weeks? Do you have any idea how much he charges your insurance company for an "office visit"? The "office visit", for me, never lasted more than 3 minutes. Sometimes, I was waiting to be seen for 30 minutes, however. And when he'd open the door to see the next patient, there was no one with him! Why was I waiting for 30 minutes? What was he doing back there? I needed to leave Jaziri and go somewhere where I'd be treated like a person rather than a means to an end (the end being money)! I would NOT recommend Jaziri to anyone with an ounce of self-worth, dignity or the desire for things to be done right. more details
