Dr. Shahnaz Kazi, MD

In my experience Dr. Kazi is great, as is her entire staff. She listens patiently and explains things thoroughly. I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes for an appointment. My husband is switching to her for primary care after years of frustration with another doctor.

Came in for a routine physical exam, trying to establish a new PCP. To begin, she inquired about past medical history. I did not bring these items up, I had no concerns related to them. She then up-charged me for an office visit saying we discussed past medical history. Also on this visit, I asked her to refill my birth control prescription and she immediately retorted, "you know that won't protect you from STDs?" If she had taken two seconds to look at my chart she would have seen that I have had 1 sexual partner and that I am Married. Fast forward, I had an urgent visit scheduled. I wasn't particularly pleased I had to go visit her, but I didn't have another PCP at this time since she was the last dr I visited. Long story short, I had pancreatitis. When I came in and explained all of my symptoms to her, she listened then responded "What do you want me to do for you?" then followed that up with "I'm not too concerned, all the important organs are on the other side of your body"

Really bad bedside manner. Doesn't listen to your concerns and shuts them down. I put my life at risk to see her for gynecologal problems (women in my culture cannot see doctors before marriage) and she was too skeptical of my cultural situation. It made me so depressed that she didn't believe anything I was saying :( I feel like I have no one to turn to and my symptoms still persist 2 years later. All I got from the visit was her telling me I'm fat, eat yogurt and change soap. Her bedside manner is even worse during the gynecologal exam and I asked for a pediatric speculum and she refused. The routine procedure was a failure and incredibly painful. I also stupidly returned to get moles removed and she said "you keep coming back for painful procedures." Just wow. Now I'm suffering because I'm feeling no doctor will believe my concerns and fears :(

Dr Kazi has the worst bedside manner EVER. Cold during appointments and treats patients like they are stupid. Directly contradicts known medical practices. Awful experience every single time ... (PAs are better!)

Cold, and short. uninterested in me as a patient. Maybe because have to many diagnoses?, Yes I'm a complicated case but I have rheumatologist and oncologist who handles those related problems. I won't be going back.

Little empathy.

Dr Kazi is the first doctor I have found in many years that we'll sit down and listen to you and talk to you she's very thorough and she knows what she's talking about I love her

Dr. Kozi is the only Dr. that I have visited that never looked at my face. I had a 9:40 am appointment and, I got there at 9:15am. I was seen almost 1 hr later and, she NEVER talked to me she handed me my blood work results and, examined me with my clothes on. This Dr. is the WORSE. Her orders were all wrong and the office manage had to go in and correct them, Stay FAR FAR away from this Dr. She doesn't care to look her patients in the eye, that is scary to me.

Dr. Kazi has been wonderful! Our midwife recommended her, and I am so glad she did. Dr. Kazi always respects our decisions as parents for our daughter, and she is a wealth of knowledge. My husband and I also use Dr. Kazi as our primary doctor. It is so convenient having one doctor for our entire family. We plan on sticking with her as long as we are in the area.

She basically told me I could take my son to the urgent care if he turned blue and stopped breathing. I inquired on alternative ways to prevent my son from turning blue. She stated there was no meds she could prescribe just watch his breathing and color and take him to the urgent care to get a shot of steroids if he stopped breathing or turned blue. Thanks for wasting our time. Any uneducated fool could have told us that.
