Dr. Shireen Rajai Khoury, MD

This young doctor saved my life. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Shireen. When my primary care doctor found that my cholesterol was very very high they referred me to the lipid disorder clinic at Johns Hopkins and I was so worried when the waiting list was long, but Dr. Shireen and their office got us in. Our appointments with her have been the best medical experience I ever had, and at my age I've had a lot. She was so caring and patient with us and explained things clearly and even drew pictures. She answered all of our questions and It felt like we were in it together as we went through everything. I never knew the yellow bumps around my eyes could be from too much cholesterol. It turned out after testing that we have a genetic issue in our family where we don't clear out the extra "LDL" cholesterol like normal, but it was treatable and we decided on the plan together. After a few months I'm getting better - I have never had a cholesterol test this good! And the… bumps are going down, I never thought that would happen. She taught us how to use the treatment at home and helped us practice the injections at the appointment and she had good advice about eating plans and exercises to do. We are forever grateful that I'm here and healthy and our two grown children can get screening too. I will miss Dr. Shireen and I want to go wherever she goes!!!

Absolutely the best!
