Dr Wright is a great doctor who covers all the basics. He is the 9th neurologist (Mayo, Diamond, U of C, Robbins Headache Clinic, etc etc) I have seen for my migraines. He explained everything, spent 1.5 hours with me, and had some out of the box suggestions. He is extremely booked (about 7 months for the initial and 4 months for a follow up. I could have seen him sooner via telemedicine but I wanted an in person appt. Highly recommended!

Dr. Wright is compassionate - calls to check-up on you continuously after you've left the hospital; insightful - noticed it was too painful for me to talk, the next visit he brought pen & paper; knowledgeable about the condition thought outside the box and used old-school medicines as well. Eye- level when I was lying in bed ( on one knee), sat and talk to make sure myself & my husband understood what was happening. Beautiful spirit

After waiting 3 months for this visit, it was extremely uncomfortable, this Dr did not want to hear about my symptoms, only if they were on his "list". When I interjected anything outside the list, he laughed or rolled his eyes. Very condescending.

compasionate and kind. He spent time to give a complete diagnosis, checks up on me at home and follows up within hours of test results.
