Dr. Arif Sami, MD

he made my mother feel belittled and disrespected. he withheld results from her. he got in her face and yelled at her. my mother has a brain tumor and he treated her this way—imagine how he will treat you

No Good. 1st posited that I had severe peripheral neuropathy then after several appts told me to take vitamin B12. Stay Away

I went to Dr Sami because I had a reaction to cold environment which turned my Body red, itchy & swelling for a period of 30 minutes or less. Dr Sami treated me like I was on “a witness stand” VERY CONDESCENDING & RUDE. He acted like I was not capable mentally to answer questions. His female office manager was impatient,NOT FRIENDLY AT ALL & rude because I was 7 to 8 minutes late!! I will NEVER GO BACK TO HIM & I advise anyone who has a medical problem to NOT GO. He is not understanding & has a terrible attitude.

After my poor husband paid for copays galore the doctor ran test after test and refused to prescribe ended up driving back home to South florida and got the Medicine he needed from a reliable doctor stay away takes you copays runs tests galore and no results Go elsewhere

He appears to listen, but twists everything and ignores critical information. Before moving to this area, I had been diagnosed with a neurological condition, and needed a local neurologist. After several appointments with Dr. Sami, during which he changed prescriptions to ones I told him I previously had bad reactions to or had no effect, I finally switched to another neurologist who agreed with the original diagnosis and is treating my condition appropriately. Wasted valuable time going to him. Please don’t make the horrible mistake I did!

My mom has Parkinson's and he took her off her Parkinson's medication and was talking about memory meds. When I went with her to an office visit, he was talking about the memory meds and said she could take the Parkinson's meds or not. The medication was helping her - why would you take her off something like that? Nice man but not sure he's competent.

Did not answer my questions, he said I had Severe Neuopathy and carpel tunnel but suggested no treatment and said, you can come back in 3 months if you want to. I have been to a lot of Dr's but never encountered such a rude incompetent Dr. I got a second opinion from another Neurologist who treated me with respect, answered all my questions and told me my problem is caused from the stroke I had, not Neuopothy and carpel tunnel. I knew Dr Sami was wrong and glad I got a second opinion.

Dr. Sami is impossible to reach other than during regular office hours. No answering service, no other doctor on call.Have waited seven weeks for a refund of overpayment of $108.20 even after numerous phone calls which have not been returned.
