Salil Jivraj Manek, MD

Every time there’s something wrong with my husband, he has a UTI. According to this office it is incredibly difficult getting him out of the house and into get these tests done but they insist on any time he is having any kind of symptoms that it is a UTI. The answer is not a UTI 2 different times I have taken him in for UTI screening and both times no infection…. I am tired of this nonsense please help the patient and do your job.

Dr. Manek was able to diagnose my wide's PSP in 15 minutes. We had seen another neurologist twice without a definitive diagnosis. He was knowledgeable, concise and caring. PSP is difficult to diagnose, most patients go years without knowing, they and their loved ones just know that something is horribly wrong.

I don't understand the negative reviews. I recently saw Dr, Manek for my Parkinson's (after 2 months of weekly calls to another neurology clinic only to finally find out they didn't accept my insurance - Molina). Dr. Manek is busy like all doctors, but I felt he was genuinely concerned, and knowledgeable about PD. (have seen Dr. twice now)

Dr. Manek is very thorough and knowledgeable. He was very pleasant and explained treatment options clearly.

I was very pleased with Dr. Manek's concern and thoroughness during my initial exam. His staff was friendly and helpful. He arranged for several tests to diagnose my problem. I would recommend him for anyone who is experiencing gait and balance problems.

Great physician. Very compassionate. Quirky in a nice way.

Dr. Manek has zero bedside manner. From the time he walks in you feel this sense of him trying to rush through the appointment so he can move on to another victim. He has these neurological tests that are very simple and basic. He is so used to doing them you get this sense he could do the whole exam while asleep. You do not feel that you are special or that he is working hard to get a diagnosis. He had barely walked into the room when he said that my many physical problems were not neurological. Instead of him making sure there was not something happening where he really could state possitively there was nothing neurological happening. Instead he suggested I see an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor, a sleep study doctor, and 2 other doctors I can't remember off the top of my head. He said that "maybe" I should get an MRI, but by the end of the appointment he was saying that I could get an MRI if I wanted to or not. He is the one that is supposed to diagnose me and I don't feel at… all that he was going to really make an effort to do that. I was VERY disappointed!

When we noticed Mom's dementia symptoms becoming worse, we were referred to Dr. Manek. He ordered the test that confirmed Alzheimer's. For the next few years, he saw Mom regularly and was always very kind and professional. He answered our questions, explained our options and was never short with us. He took his time with each appointment and we never felt unimportant or like Mom was just a #. He returned every phone call and worked Mom into his schedule between regular appointments. I have no idea what happened with the people who were unhappy, but for 5+ years, he was our life line. Mom passed away in Nov of 2015, and when I think of the positive things in her life, Dr. Manek is one of them.
