Dr. Greg Michael Thaera, MD

While Dr. Thaera is kind, he hasn’t been able to tell me why I’m having nerve pain. Mind you it could be the same with another doctor as well. I do know that Dr. Thaera has ran all of the appropriate tests but nothing. It’s very frustrating. Where I have been extremely unhappy has been with his nurse Don. It takes multiple calls before he returns calls, 2 days later. He told the doctor I wanted to go off my medication when all I asked was if we could adjust the dosage. When I came in for my appointment he didn’t welcome me but pointed to the scale indicating I should get on it while he stood approximately 4-5 feet away. His rudeness is atrocious. I am a nurse and I would never treat anyone in this manner. Thankfully he will be retiring in the next 6 months so that no one else need endure his treatment. When I mentioned to Dr. Thaera how rude he was he had absolutely no reply. More than likely I will be finding another neurologist for a second opinion and also so I won’t have to be… treated so rudely.

Dr Thaera is very knowledgeable and tells it like it is. A refreshing approach and he acts like he really cares. I would highly recommend him for neurological disorders and he also specializes in MS (multiple sclerosis). Plus he has a great nurse.

I went to Dr Thaera after suffering with complications from thoracic outlet surgery. He listened to my concerns and did the tests that we both knew were needed to determine the extent of nerve damage. Best neurologist I have ever been too.

I'm sure that Dr. Thaera is excellent in some areas of the neurological profession, but I would strongly caution you against going to him in search of an epilepsy diagnosis. His approach with me was incredibly slapdash. He jumped to conclusions and had me on a counterproductive regimen of medications that actually seemed to increase seizures. Do yourself a favor and go right to the Epilepsy Care Center if you can. I went there in search of a second opinion and got a definitive diagnosis.

Dr. Thaera is a magnificent doctor, he spends time with you and really listens to your concerns, not only does he treat the disease, but treats you as a human and pays attention to your needs. His nurse though, is the WORST nurse ever.

Dr. Thaera took the time to find out what was really wrong with me. I've been in out of doctors appointments for a long time and Dr. Thaera found the answer. I appreciate that very much.
