Dr. Brian Hard, MD

We were referred here for my father’s Parkinson’s Disorder. After scans were run we were called in and told he didn’t have Parkinson’s. I asked about recent aphasia symptoms. The doctor said,”well that would be signs of a stroke, and he hasn’t had a stroke. My father and I both explained he was admitted 9 years earlier with stroke. The doctor looked back at his scan then looked up and said, “no he’s never had a stroke”. I didn’t know what to say. I felt certain the stroke should be able to be seen. But he is the doctor. Then he stopped all Parkinson’s meds. A month later my father started loosing total control of his legs. Another month later, I was looking at my Dad as a major stroke began. I called an ambulance and a local hospital saved his life. They ran scans. They saw the stroke from 9 years ago and a MAJOR stroke present long before that day. They know this because my dads body had time to form complete new blood vessels around the blockage.

I've been a patient of Dr. Hard's for over 4 years. I've recently had concerning symptoms and contacted his office and was told to see a different kind of doctor about it. I did and something came back wrong after an MRI of my brain was done. I've tried to make an appt to get back in to see him about it and was told he didn't order the MRI and I need to see the doctor who ordered the MRI, when my family doctor is the one who ordered it. After explaining my symptoms and that the MRI came back showing something is wrong, his office has dismissed my concerns twice now. He's been fine seeing me for 2 minutes for my migraines and getting me out the door, but if something is wrong with you I suggest avoiding this place and going somewhere else.

Dr Hard had thoroughly reviewed my chart before my first appointment, and was prepared to discuss my challenges and potential next steps. He was a good listener and seems committed to figuring out what the real problem is. He was very professional and pleasant.

Dr. Hard is one of the best doctors I've encountered in any specialty. He takes his time and doesn't rush through appointments, he explains and educates patients about diagnoses and treatments, and he is kind and compassionate.

ONE OF THE NICEST DOCTORS I HAVE MET IN A LONG TIME. HE HAS TIME, LISTENS TO YOU, ANSWERS QUESTIONS, COMES UP WITH SOUND HEALTH ADVISE. THAT'S A VERY GOOD DOCTOR.

All of the staff and Dr. Hard were very nice and helpful.

I wouldnt recommend this Dr to anyone I've been using Harbin Clinic for over 11 years .unfortunately my Dr decided to transfer so i was stuck with this Dr he comes in and immediately wants to change my meds that I've been on for 11yrs and have been working great .So i ask him why change something if its working great? He says because i dont want to continue to give you the same meds .so needless to say im on the hunt for a new Dr .
