Welcome to Gboard clipboard, any text you copy will be saved here.This doctor worked with Dr. Neil Edison-Nuff Said! Biggest A-Hoo psych doc in America! If the medical board understood that this doctor would get his license revoked. It takes a megacreep to work with a massive cockroach!

I first got diagnosed with epilepsy after they found a brain tumor. I was later diagnosed with Trigeminal neuralgia which has been absolutely horrendous and terrifying. There is no way i could of gone through this without dr adams. What a beautiful, intelligent and best of all PATIENT doctor. No questions were stupid and even when i felt hopeless and desperate he never left my side. Lord gave me a beautiful doctor and i could never stop praising him.

Dr Adams is a wonderful doctor and a great person as well. He is my sister's neurologist for over 10 years. My sister feels so happy just by seeing Dr Adams who gives love and tender care to my sister and to all his patients as well. Nancy Chavez

Plain terrible. He is very square. He simply does not listen to your concerns.

I suffered a severe cranial injury at work that the WC insurance company tried to have "rubber stamped" as minor by its disreputable neurologist. I transferred my case to the University of Miami's Department of Neurology and was fortunate to be assigned to Dr Adams. Not only does Dr. Adams have integrity beyond reproach, he is knowledgeable, personable and genuinely cares about my well being and health. In addition, Dr. Adams is the only doctor I've ever known that begins an appointment on time, every time! Thanks to Dr. Adams, I received vital medical treatment, which was completely ignored by the insurance company's doctor. In my opinion, If you're looking for a great neurologist, you cannot find a better doctor than Dr. Adams.

Dr. Adams is excellent. He doesn't use a nurse, he comes and gets you himself. I never feel rushed by him. He is the only doctor that could properly diagnose me.

After a Month of waiting to see Dr, Adams, I was really seen by his assistant Dr?. Who did all the questions and examination. I never saw the Dr until assistant finished with me after a while. I really wasn't allowed to explain what I was feeling because assistant did it for me?, really?.

Very limited and rushed exam. He appears more concerned with staying on schedule than treating the patient.
