August 5, 2024Nicole D.Verified patientVideo visit
No one from the doctors office nor the doctor reached out to me about my scheduled appointment. I’m not sure if they got my online forms, but I know they got the actual form for the appointment. I still have yet to hear from the doctors office and I even called and left a voicemail with Mel to return my call very disappointed. ?

Rashidah was so amazing! When I wasn’t able to get in to see my PCP, I was able to see Rashidah right away. She listened to my concerns and symptoms, walked me through the treatment plan, and had excellent bedside manner. She made me feel at ease and taken care of, even through a Zoom screen! I would highly recommend Rashidah!

Dr. Rashida really takes care her patients. The office is in a very humble setting, but it’s that intimacy that provides a better experience for you. I would definitely recommend going to her again. Especially if you have had problems from being heard from other doctors before. She will definitely take care of you and listen to all of your concerns.

This doctor is professional, compassionate, and has an excellent bedside manner. She will make you feel safe while assessing such vulnerable symptoms, which is incredibly appreciated. This is a doctor that is truly motivated to help!
January 29, 2024Jessica G.Verified patientVideo visit
My visit was amazing, My nurse was very fluent with the medical symptoms I had and very pleasant. She knew exactly what was going on with me and decided to treat me for my symptoms. She was concerned about my past health and future physical wellbeing. She explained to me ways to stay healthy, tests that I should consider taking in the future to remain healthy, and reassured me of things to be aware of that can cause harm to your physical health and wellbeing. I’m very satisfied. The passion, care and concern of my health made me feel like family. I appreciate the generosity and professionalism. Thanks
