Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Nahas goes above and beyond to help with my condition. She has never questioned or patronized me in any way, as many doctors have (when dealing with this). I have always felt understood and have always felt that there is hope when I see her.

For the first time someone has listened to me regarding migraines. For the past year, my headaches drastically changed and no one would listen to me. She provided natural options that went along with rx options and provided 3 other treatment options if the first line did not work.

I saw Dr Nahas after having Chronic Intractable Migraines; I've had migraines since 15yo and chronic since 30yo. I've tried 50+ medications, devices, supplements and remedies. Hospital Ers and inpatient visits became routine yet none took me seriously. I developed PTSD, mdd and suicidal ideation fue to the debilitating unrelenting high pain levels. Dr Nahas was the first to listen, take me seriously, offer me possible solutions and hope. Thanks to Dr Nahas and TJU I feel a glimmer of life the first time I 50 yrs; my hope is slowly returning.

I was a patient of Dr. Nahas for 11 months. I sought diagnosis and treatment of my headaches. Dr. Nahas’ diagnosis was accurate but her treatment was inadequate. Ultimately I sought a second opinion and learned that Dr. Nahas was severely overmedicating me. In addition, she did not offer or provide the most up-to-date and efficacious treatment options. The Jefferson Headache Center is not patient centered. In terms of scheduling, communication, flexibility, follow-up, and general friendliness, the Headache Center fails across the board to meet the standard of care. I was fortunate to be able to move on. My current doctor has done for me in 6 weeks what Dr. Nahas did not do in almost a year.

She wrote my child off after a brain injury as brain-dead. She devoted no more than 15 minutes before coming to this conclusion. If it had been up to her, my daughter would have been taken off of life support. Luckily, I didn't listen to her. My daughter recovered. If I had followed Dr Nahas's advice, my daughter would be dead today. A real doctor cannot make mistakes like this.

Dr. Nahas severely over medicates her patients and has no concern for the symptoms these toxic drugs are causing the rest of the body. Her bedside manner is wildly unprofessional. Do not see this doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr. Nahas' for the past 7+ years. She has always explained what was going on, in detail and answered any questions I may have had. I have complete trust and faith in her decisions and advice and that of most of the nurses. However, the front office staff leaves a lot to be desired.
