    Every person I encountered acted in a professional but kind way. The doctor read the report from my previous neurologist before he came into the room. He answered all my questions and said I could put any more questions on the portal and he would answer them.
    I never felt rushed. Things were addressed and discussed to my satisfaction. I learned a lot about my condition and walked away with an interest in learning more.
    I know that most people coming to this facility are scared and worried about their health. I think this team is skilled and they seem happy to help.

    Houston Methodist is my preferred hospital. 5 years ago, I had life altering surgeries and they took exceptional care with me. My neurologist, Dr.Nakawah, is the best doctor I’ve ever had. He knows and takes exceptional care of his patients and saved me from being permanently disabled . This is the only hospital I recommend.
