Best Doctor Appt Ever ! Easy parking, welcoming waiting room & friendly front & back office team. Dr. Khaleghi took his time to listen to my concerns & asked me very specific questions & he explained to me his method of treating hShow moreis patients: I don’t treat based from what lab work is indicating ( solely ) , I treat the person in front me - what symptoms they are experiencing & from examining them ex: fingers, wrists, knee motion… he provided education including diagrams on his computer to help me better understand what likely is causing my pain & mobility challenges. Two or three times I was in tears because a Dr was listening to my history & current daily experiences AND he understood one particular genetic piece of my specifics that other doctors had not previously . He put forward options that may help me to live a more mobile & less pain-filled life! Tears come now as I share this with you: Dr Khaleghi Gave Me HOPE again! Yes, it seems I have a degenerative situation, but now I have Hope restored from 1 mtg with Dr. Khaleghi & that for me is Priceless. I’m so thankful I waited weeks to get this appt & didn’t choose a dif Dr who could see me right away. I left my appt encouraged & with a plan & first step to be implement that day & referrals for me to take the next steps in gathering images & adding a pain mgmt. Dr to my team so I can look forward to my future not live in discouragement. It sounds like an exaggeration maybe, but for me it’s not - meeting with Dr Khaleghi changed my life - I have a chance to Thrive now & my family & friends already have noticed a big change in me, I’m lighter & more positive. Is my experience day to day still challenging , yes, has it improved Yes & I thank Dr Khaleghi for this! I am fortunate to have him as a hero in my life’s journey! You can too - I highly recommend Dr. Khaleghi, he’s really invested in treating you as a person, & I’m so thankful.

Always amazing & very attentive! Dr. Khaleghi has been overseeing my very upsetting reality of degenerative OA, along with another concerning cervical nerve issue. I am so grateful to have the help of a Doctor who listens and reShow moreally cares so we have a solid plan to help support current issues as well as plan for the future. I turn 60 this year and I am planning to remain functional forever because life with dogs is a must and need to be able to have strength to walk them and be independent. In reality, I may not have others to help during those golden chapters ahead (a long way ahead) but, remaining active as we age is imperative and I appreciate Dr. Khaleghi’s valued expertise with alternative approaches and overall support for a solid care plan. His team is also very nice and friendly… professional and very easy to make an appointment with. Thank you!!!
