The office staff was unprofessional and it was clearly an office that always runs significantly late. My visit was five minutes after waiting 45 and I think it should have been more thorough. I would not recommend this practice .

Great. He understands pain and treats the patient with dignity and respect.
I appreciate him after having very bad experiences with previous doctors.

I have been a patient of Dr. Sheikh for a year & a half. When I have an issue with my back, I have always be able to make an appointment quickly. He is a very caring & concerned physician & always takes the time to explain what is going on with my back, even when he is doing a procedure. I have told family & friends what an excellent doctor he is & that they have used his services. His staff is wonderful too! They are extremely helpful & pleasant.
