Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I saw Dr Syed years ago when he practiced outside of Cleveland. He is an awesome Dr and I haven't been able to find a comparable replacement. I walk out of other Neurology offices feeling sicker and morose. I always walked out of Dr Syed's office feeling empowered, and likely to continue walking (I have MS).

Absolutely terrible! Tanvir Syed is more about disabling a patient rather than getting them on the road to recovery. This doctor AND his office cannot complete basic prescription renewals and other required forms. DO NOT waste your time with this doctor. His license should be suspended!

I was referred to Dr Syed by my primary care physician. After submitting questionnaire about my health regarding the residual CVA effects, he stated I never had a stroke at that time he felt the only thing wrong with me was that I had carpal tunnel. Dr Syed gave me about a 10-minute assessment in his office. I reiterated to him the week in the hospital, the referral, supporting documentation, the numerous I MRIS, etc. He then stated to me again that he felt that I just have carpal tunnel.

My husband had an appt with Dr. Sayed. We waited an hour to see him. My husband was very aggravated by this and let the staff know and the doctor. The doctor explained that he had taken on the patients of 3 other doctors, therefore causing the delay. He said it was the system that was causing the delays, not him personally. I've run into this with every specialist we've been to. The doctors wear themselves very thin. We do like Dr. Sayed as a doctor.

The last time I had an appointment, I waited one hour and 20 minutes before he walked in to the door - for all of about 2 minutes. He did not even apologize for keeping me waiting. His arrogance leads him to believe that WE are there for HIM, not the other way around. I am in the process of shopping around for another neurologist. I wouldn't recommend Dr. Syed to anyone. He also needs to move the waiting room chair AWAY from the desk window, to enable privacy with patients checking in/out
