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.

Very good
Listens to you and works with you. Years of experience. Best Neurologist I have ever seen.

Don’t bother calling! Only his nurse can give you an appointment with Dr. Irr; and she does NOT return calls. I was a long-time patient, and the nurse couldn’t even be bothered to refill my prescription. This is his choice, his responsibility.

Only rated this 1 star as 0 stars wasn’t an option! Tried to make an appointment-told to fill out massive amount of paperwork online. Filled it out and received a confirmation email that it had been received. Called back the next day and was told by a snotty receptionist that I would have to wait for a nurse to contact me to schedule my appointment. When I asked for a time line, she got even more snotty (if possible) and said I would have to wait for a nurse and it could be up to 72 more hours before someone would get with me to schedule an appointment. I have NEVER had to wait for 4 days to set up an appointment! Contacted another neurologist and within 10 minutes I had an appointment scheduled and had given all of my medical information. Totally unacceptable and unprofessional!!! I wonder if the physicians actually know or care how their staff (snotty receptionist) are causing them to lose patients?!?

I had surgical complications from brain surgery that left me on intermittent bedrest with disabling pain for close to two years. I went to so many doctors to try to solve the issue. No one listened or was able to help after many visits. Dr. Irr listened to me. I took one test to confirm the issue, and after a short treatment, had my life back. I am forever grateful for Dr. Irr.

Incompetent, unprofessional, rude, inconsiderate office staff. I filled out their 20 page application online then a week later Elvira called and asked for previous Dr.records. I gave them to her and here it is 3 weeks later and I never heard back from them to set an appointment so I called and they couldn’t even find me in the computer. Is this a Dr. office or a circus? These people shouldn’t be allowed to work with the public. If they can’t keep up with paperwork I sure don’t trust them to examine me! "

Dr Irr is great and knows his stuff. He helped me out a lot with my lower back. However, there is a lady that works in the front that has been extremely rude to me and others. She was so rude and unhelpful that I could not give more than one star.

My neurologist of many years retired and I saw Dr. Irr because I was experiencing long term neurological and muscular problems resulting from a brain injury. He said he would work until we found an answer. Performed an EMG and told me nothing but that I might want to see a rheumatologist, which I had previously done. He was brusque and no help at all.
