Patient Testimonials
"Just wanted to thank you and your staff for creating such a safe environment at your K Street office. I was reassured to see everyone wearing their masks properly yesterday! When a patient's mask started to slip in the reception area, someone IMMEDIATELY came out to ask him to pull it up. It was so reassuring!”
“I am happy to let everyone know how great the Neurology Center/Chevy Chase is. My primary care doctor referred me there because of neuropathy symptoms. He advised that every doctor there is first class, and any will serve me well. I was assigned to Dr. Nabil Altememi, and how fortunate for me. He is brilliant, thorough, experienced, confident and a great communicator. After two appointments now, I am confident in my experience and my judgment. I commend the Neurology Center to you, and I specifically commend Dr. Altememi. Good luck.” –TM
“I like the fact that there is very little waiting to see the doctor. Dr. Stephanie Block takes time to hear questions and answer them. I don't feel rushed. And there's plenty of parking.” –NF
“Dr. Ezra Cohen takes the time to go through my health issue and concerns on my first visit. He is really great and I just recommended him to one of my friends who is looking for good neurologist. Other staff members are pleasant and the waiting time is reasonable. Overall experience was great.” –MMM
“The Neurology Center is awesome and particularly Dr. Eric Jeffries. He’d been tracking an issue with my health for a few years. He sent me to a surgeon this past fall because he didn’t like what he saw. I had surgery in December and the issue has been resolved. Not only is Dr. Jeffries top notch, but the staff is always friendly and helpful. I’d recommend them to anyone.” – LK
“The staff at each office over many years have been AWESOME!! My heart goes to Dr. Taryn Fortune. She is so thorough and has been diligent in helping me with my discomfort.

He is straight to the point and I like that. I wanted to know just what my issues were and my options. Dr. David Moore knows how to do the professional testing phase and has an easy going bedside manner. He is qualified and very likeable. The Providence office space is very clean and the check in staff efficient.” –AG

“Physically, the Sleep Center resembles that which you would expect if staying at a very nice motel/hotel, a comfortable double bed, closet space, and a clean bathroom with towels, soap, and shampoo, plus TV. The staff were also very professional from the time of check-in, to showing you around your assigned room, and explaining the process for attaching the requisite electrodes on your body. If you awaken during the night in need of the bathroom, just say your assigned staff member’s name out loud and she will quickly appear to unhook your electrodes from the monitoring station. You are awoken early, around 5am, released from your electrodes and told you may now shower, get dressed, and go home. If, in my case, the testing resolves my sleep disorder, I will upgrade the facility’s rating to the highest level.” -PL
“A very professional yet friendly atmosphere that welcomes you at once, and a staff of very confident and competent caregivers. What more can I ask for? Dr. David Taragin is an extraordinary neurologist, and I know I am lucky to have him for my doctor.” -JK

“The Neurology Center has a friendly front office staff always providing outstanding professional customer service with a smile.

Dr. Pulaski is my favorite “Doctor/Friend.” -Ms. M
“Great front desk presence (I don’t get to say that elsewhere). Professional and positive. That sets the tone for the appointment and the importance of this is frequently overlooked. Well done staff! Dr. Nadia Yusuf was warm and genuine and (most importantly) knowledgeable and communicative. Great visit. Keep up the great experience and work!” - MD
“Dr. Nabil Altememi listened to our concerns and took into a count all of my Mom’s issues before recommending the next step. He also let us choose how fast and how far to take the work up, because her issue did not require immediate neurological action. It was very reassuring.” -AB
