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.

Flippant, arrogant, and callous. When asked about a potential prognosis he actually chuckled before decimating hopes of walking again. Initially refused to answer questions not directly in his referral, and when finally did ?answer?, was mocking and gave no useful information. Bedside manner is non-existent. If you need a neurologist, please see someone else.

Dr. Ni put me on a long-term, high-dose IV steroid treatment for what he said was vasculitis that gave me auto-immune hepatitis and I ended up hospitalized for treatment/biopsy of my liver. The steroid treatment also gave me a rash that no one could diagnosis. I haven't been healthy since.

I see Dr. NI FOR Botox injections. My essential tremors were creating a less active lifestyle for me. Medication for them would only slow my activity. Now that I have my injections every 3.5 months I no longer worry about people seeing them before me. I'm also very active. Dr. Ni has always made sure I'm comfortable with my dose and is willing to adjust things if needed. He truly cares for his patients.

I was referred to Doctor Ni because of a problem with foot pain. I have really appreciated his skills in communication with me about my condition. Dr. Ni is a very good listener. I never get the feeling that he is rushed when I see him. The medications he advised me to use have been successful. He encourages me to take better care of my overall health in a very positive way. I have appreciated his work with very much and I will miss his support and advice.

Have been seeing Dr Ni for over a year now. Does Botox injections for my Cervical Dystonia. His care and compassion is amazing. He has spent extra time figuring out what options work best for me. Since seeing him my quality of life with my Dystonia has greatly increased. I thoroughly trust his care and opinions.

Dr. Ni provided me with Botox injections around my eyes for the treatment of blepharospasm. His "bedside manner" was friendly yet professional. He took time to listen to me, and was very considerate in caring for my need to slow down the pace of the injections. I was very satisfied with my treatment by Dr. Ni.

Mother states that Dr Ni was wonderful when my daughter was in a coma and felt very comfortable and his bedside manner was awesome. He never gave any false hope while we were in the hospital with her. They state that he was our life line and really cared out Carissa and us. They feel very fortunate to have him as a doctor.

Plain incompetent. I have been seeing Dr. Ni for issues with nerve pain. He has given me blatantly false information, kept inaccurate notes, and referred my multiple times to the doctor that referred me to him, as though I've never seen her before. When confronted with this information, he acted as though he did nothing wrong. I have been waiting a year for him to start treatment on my back, this past visit he said he didn't even know I had a bad back. NEVER go to him !
