He is very rude and should not be interacting with patients.

I had a very informative visit with Dr. Opida. He explained everything in great detail and was caring and compassionate. His staff was excellent, got me scheduled quickly and were very professional and friendly. His Office Manager Sheila was very helpful and Deb, another nurse was equally as friendly and professional. I highly recommend this Neurologist.

Very condescending and accusatory. Sounds like he's a strong believer in Freud.

I've been seeing this Dr for several years. He's pleasant, funny, takes the time to listen to me, and actually remembers personal info about me. Would recommend him to anyone. Kendra is also very nice and helpful.

My overall experience was excellent. The office has a professional but friendly feel. My wait time was minimal and my face to face time with the doctor was more than adequate. He took the time to explain my medical condition not only to me but to my family. I would refer friends and family to this clinic.
