    The entire staff is friendly and helpful. From the time you check in, the nurses, and the doctor. They listen, understand, and provide help when needed.

    I am extremely impressed with Dr Omar and how comfortable he made me feel about my health. He is extremely knowledgeable and made me feel I am under great care and concern. He listens and helps answer all my questions.

    He did not take time to listen to my symptoms and he was gone out of the office within three minutes. He did not listen to me.

    I have taken a Datscan and the results weren't good. I have Parkinsonism and have REM sleep disorder. But I don't have any idea what this means for my future. I have balance issues. Dr said that he was referring me for physical therapy.

      He didn't know my medical history and asked, kept asking if I had tried different medicines and he hadn't really looked at my chart, I could tell.

      Neurology staff was wonderful. I have been a patient of Dr. Omar's for years. I do not feel that he listened to my concerns. We went through my concerns at the beginning of the appointment and he agreed to them, but then progressing through the appointment, giving me the Botox shots, he did the opposite of what he said that he would do. I will not be returning and am currently seeking another neurologist.

      He diagnosed me without speaking to me first. He had a preconceived diagnosis before entering the room, and the diagnosis he gave me did not match the symptoms I listed. I had no pain, but he prescribed a medication I will not take, and didnt seem to want to do any testing and wrote me off as a "win".

      I enjoy the hard work and dedication that Dr. Omar and his nurse bring to each visit I have. I have recommended several patient's to his practice, as well as my own family. I am so glad that I have KDMC to rely on for my health care.

      Everyone in the office was so warm and kind. I was really nervous about my appointment because I've felt brushed off in the past by other nurses/doctors but my nurse was great and willing to answer any questions I had before the doctor came in which helped put me at ease. Doctor Omar was really great as well, which I had already heard from other doctors and patients of his that I know. He listened to everything I had to say and I feel like he is going to do whatever he can to figure out what's going on with me.
