Saima Chohan's Online Review Report Card

I waited 6 weeks to see her for new onset of severe pain in shoulders and hips that was now into the 4th month - I was first grilled by her arrogant PA for 45 min who discounted and minimized everything I told her. The MD spent 10 minutes - poked a few joints and was extremely dismissive -spending most of her time telling me that is wasn’t what my PCP had thought it might be. I called the office 4 days later to get test results and a week later, no call back She said everything would go to my PCP and over a week later he has heard nothing either. I’ve been in healthcare over 50 years and I’m extremely disappointed that this provider is practicing. She clearly is not sensitive to patients needs and does not appear to want to be bothered by patients seeking her help. I would not recommend her and certainly won’t return.

Doctor Chohan touched a few parts of my body and stated my problem is not one she can treat even thou other doctors stated I needed to see a Reheumatologist. She was very quick to dismiss my pain and blame Sleep Anpea which I have had for over 10 years, and pain is something only in the last 3 to 4 years. Do not trust this doctor, only wants your insurance money.

Dr. Chohan is fantastic. She spoke to me about my illness in a manner that I understood without all of the medicalese that some physicians use. Diagnosed and treated very quickly.

Sent my mom to her since I saw some positive reviews on nextdoor and now I feel terrible bc she was terrible! When you’re in pain you n be d someone to take their time with you and really dig into your chart and history etc. She does no care one bit for her patients and has zero bedside manners. Her PA is even worse. Find someone else who cares more and who will think outside side the box and actually try. So disappointed! Now my poor mom is in bed suffering and waiting to get in to another doctor. Shameful

I don't think I have enough characters here to write all the ways this doctor has failed me. Why be in this profession if you don't care about your patients? The latest? She said she re authorized my meds when she didn't. I had to call the insurance company to find out. Mean while, I'm without my meds. Didn't have to happen if she would have just done her job. She also gave me the run around about a mobility device. You'd think a rheumatologist would know but apparently not. No help at all. Made me feel worse about the whole thing. Incredibly ableist attitude there. Don't even get me started on Rosemary, the pa. Who ignored knocks on the door from the doctor while she tried to tell me what a flare was, I've had arthritis my whole life. I've been through so many doctors over 35 years. This one has given me some of the worst experiences of my life. BEWARE.

She likes to cover her eyes and throw a variety of medications at you to see what sticks. And if it doesn't, it's your fault. All she cares about is the payday. Some of the worst experiences I've had in 35 years. Find someone else.

For my fibromyalgia and arthritis I’ve been seeing rheumatologists for 15 to 20 years. When my primary care doctor referred me to Dr. Chohan., I thought it would be the same but I was told they practice doesn’t handle fibro and arthritis. Looking for a new rheumatologist

I had a terrible experience with this doctor. After spending all of 5 minutes with me she told me I am getting old. I am 52. She did not draw blood or perform any tests. She just declared I am old and then prescribed Tylenol and an Arthritis glove. 1 year later and still in pain and desperate, I went to my podiatrist. He gave me orders for RA lab work and what do you know? My numbers are high. I have nothing good to say about her. I am not sure what damage has been done in the interim by this incorrect and insulting diagnosis but I guess I am about to find out.

Please! DON'T get her as your doctor. She is horrible and does not care of your health. I been having a flair up since last Friday. I have called the office 3 times and have left messages in the urgent lane, to please tell Dr. Chohan to precribe me medicine for the pain. And I just received a call from her assistant she was extremely MEAN to me, and did not not care about my flair up. This is not the 1st time this rudness happens to me. I have had several other incidents with the office before. I will be changing my doctor stat. I don't want a doctor that only cares about the money & not my health. I already have a chronic illness which its hard. But it makes it harder when you feel like your dying and your doctor don't care.

I have recommended Dr. Chohan to my friends. She is a very knowledgeable, caring doctor. She is always on time even though she takes the time to explain things and make sure there are no concerns. She listens to the patient and goes the extra mile to write things down or make referrals. She responds quickly to emails through the patient portal, too.
