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.

Don't ask questions
First appointment there was a long wait. When I saw the doctor on the first visit he did not answer questions or talk very much just ordered an mri. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt thinking he needed inform from the mri to fully discuss the issue. Went to the second appointment to discuss mri results and he said I needed surgery. When I started asking questions he got up and said he would be right back. The nurse then came in with a referral for another doctor. I asked why when all I did was ask questions which he never replied . She then went and got Nadim to come back in. He said if I didn't want surgery I needed to go to UK. My question is who has surgery without discussing it first?

Waste Of Time
Receptionist and X-ray tech were very nice and helpful, Dr. Nadim on the other hand was not. Would ask me a question and would interrupt while I was answering. Spent less than five minutes with me and didn’t help in any way. Unfortunately I’ll have to go back to Lexington.

Everybody from the office personnel to the nurse and radiologist getting out giving x-rays. Everything was very professional. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. They have my full trust.

Excellent Doctor
I’ve been seeing Dr. Nadim for almost a year and he’s definitely grown on me. My first visit was ok…the wait time was a little long because his waiting room was packed. When Dr Nadim came in the room he was very straightforward and to the point (diagnosed with torn rotator cuff). They scheduled my surgery pretty quickly and now my shoulder feels great with no pain. I have since returned to Dr Nadim with a broken leg. Initially he gave me the option to have surgery OR wait and wear a medical boot for it to heal. Unfortunately, my bone is not healing properly (3 months later) and he’s recommending again that I have the surgery to fix my leg properly. At each visit Dr Nadim has seemed to warm up to me and has always shown me respect and compassion. At first he seemed a little cold, only stating the basics about my condition, in and out of the room in mere minutes. As I’ve had multiple appointments with him, he shows more compassion and is more friendly towards me and my family.

Shoulder Pain
I had surgery last February 14th 2023. The surgery performed by Dr. Nadim went very well. The surgery resolved that issue. Somehow I have injured my rotator cuff again In a totally different spot. Dr. Nadim has scheduled an MRI with dye to be able to see what it is exactly going on. Dr. Nadim is straight forward and to the point the way any doctor should be. He Truly cares for his patients and it shows.

Doctor Nadim
Easily scheduled an appointment to see Doctor Nadim for extreme knee pain. He had previously done a meniscus repair a number of years ago. Was surprised to get in within 1 week of my call. Didn’t wait long in the waiting area or office to be seen. Doctor Nadim was very pleasant and listened to my concerns. Was taken to X-ray quickly. He wanted an MRI; however, due to metal in my body I can’t have an MRI. He requested I go to Physical Therapy for evaluation. Have follow-up appointment to determine next course of action. Completely satisfied with process so far.
