This visit was for my annual flu shot. They created a separate space off the waiting room to give patients vaccinations without using one of the exam rooms and eliminating close contact with other patients. As always they were friendly and efficient.
Dr. Hemen Shah is the BEST!! Takes the time to explain your concerns and evaluates all of your testing results and prescribes a unique program for your needs. Have recommended on numerous occasions. Shirley, Dr. Shahs staff nurse is excellent too.From entering the offices to departure all staff are pleasant and very helpful
Saw Dr. Hakim. She was thorough & informative. She explained everything to me. I am really glad I found a great endocrinologist! I already recommended to one of my co-workers to go to her..
Dr Hakim is extremely personable and shares details about everything she is doing. I really appreciate the transparency and her respect. She is very knowledgeable and thorough.
Dr. Hiren Shah has been my primary care physician for over 25 years. Hes very caring and takes the time to explain everything. The staff there is friendly and efficient.
I am very impressed with the professional and caring ways shown by Dr. Hemen Shah and his nurse. They were so compassionate and informative during my husband’s long illness explaining exactly what was happening and answering our questions.I find that Dr. Hemen Shah is so very thorough and open to any questions and explaining clearly and he gets back to you quickly.I highly recommend him.
Dr. Shah is very thorough and compassionate. He asks the right questions and listens carefully. My husband and I could not be more pleased with the care we receive here. The office staff always call back when you leave a message, and will fit in appointments when the need is clear.
Dr Hakim is a wonderful doctor. She takes the time with you and doesnt rush through the appointment, she answers all questions and you feel she really cares about your welfare. She has a great staff. I have no complaints. I even refer others to her.
Very pleased with the kindness and efficiency of this practice.
Dr. Hakim and the staff are very friendly and professional. I feel like Dr. Hakim listens to me and I feel so comfortable with her.
Dr. Hakim is the best, she is very thorough and informative.
The office staff was super friendly and attentive to my needs. Dr Hakim was absolutely wonderful, she was thorough in her examination and explanation of everything that was going on. The assisting medical staff was also super polite and wonderful!
Efficient, professional yet personalized visit. Great group from the front desk inprocessing to checking out.
I have been going to numerous doctors for the past decade looking for answer for my symptoms. I was constantly overlooked, not taken seriously, or given false answers for what was causing my health issues. Jinhui and Hakim were the first to finally take me seriously, listen to my concerns, order the correct blood work, and come to diagnosis. Jinhui was quick to respond and made sure I completely understood my symptoms, medications, side effects, the whole nine yards. I absolutely love this office! Thank you!
My experience was very positive. The Doctor, and Nurse were very friendly and professional.
The Dr was Extremely informative and very good! after two other Drs before Dr Hakim I have finally found the one :) , however it was super busy and I found the wait to be a little long! but extremely pleased
I appreciate Dr. Hemen Shah so much! Such a good doctor! He doesn’t make you feel rushed and has excellent bed side manner! That practice is busy so you have to wait, but totally worth the high quality care!
Love to work with my doctor and his nurse
Wonderful care from Dr. Hakim
Dr. Hakim is an excellent physician. She is very thorough and has a great personality. Always follows up with lab results quickly. Would highly recommend her.
My brother moved from NY to MD. He needed to establish a relationship with a new PCP. This practice was recommended to him. First visit was GREAT! Very professional.
First off I love working with Dr Hakim. She takes time to explain and while professional remains personal. Unfortunately yesterday was not a good day. I had an appt at 11a, arriving 1045. I waited one hour in the waiting room and they waited almost a half an hour in the examination room for her to come in. It distresses me to think I was in that room and the nurse never checked on me after the initial visit. That is something that I think needs to be looked into your policies. If Im late for an appointment I get charged however I waited an hour and a half before the doctor came in another half an hour for the appointment itself so I just think that that needs to be brought to someones attention.
I feel so fortunate to have found Dr Hakim. She is the best! She is a very good listener and gives you the time you need to share and explain your health issues and concerns. There are times you may have to wait beyond your appointment time to be seen, but once she enters the room, she is focused on you and does not rush you out. She is worth the wait. Dr Hakim explains lab results so that you understand what is going on with your thyroid and works with you to determine and explain treatment and adjustments to your health plan. Love Dr Hakim!
Ive been seeing Dr Hakim for a number of years now. She is attentive, caring, and always makes me feel like the most important person in her office. She always goes over my lab results answering my questions in ways that make me an integral part of the healthcare process.
Dr Hakim is always pleasant, very knowledgeable and efficient. Her assistants and the office staff are also pleasant and efficient.
Dr Hakim takes a vested interest in diagnosing and treating her patients.
I see Dr Hemen Shah and Jin Hui Yuan. These two are great for calling me.out on my BS when it comes to my health. And I sense that they do it because they care. Thats what I like about their practice, their honesty and integrity. The staff have been nice to me and informative. I like the practice and highly recommend them!
I have been with Doctor Hakim for many years and I have already recommended my husband and daughter. I have been happy with all the staff and would recommend this practice to anyone that needs this service
Staff were very pleasant. Doctor and staff were very thorough. Very little wait time
While sitting in the waiting room, you never know what is going on behind closed doors, so this comment is regarding waiting.With COVID-19, extra precautions are in place, but the physical area to enforce them is limited at this practice. There are not many chairs available 6 feet apart and when they fill patients are left standing. In addition, new patients are coming in and a line formed out the door.I was there for a walk-in flu shot. I took up a patient seat for 45 minutes before getting the shot.Otherwise, I love the physicians and staff at this practice! The attention one receives is top-notch.
The doctors and stuff are very professional and pleasant to interact with.
Dr. Hakim treats all her patients very professionally but also shows sincere care and compassion. Shes always willing to hear my concerns and answers all questions and alleviates all concerns. I live 50 plus miles away and she is well worth the trip.
Dr Hakim is my all time favorite doctor. She is knowledgeable, kind, and takes her time with you. She really cares about your overal well being. The front office staff at times has been rude but I can handle that to see a wonderful doctor. The wait can be a bit much too but I know she is a popular doctor and everyone wants to see her so again ill wait for her. Im lucky to have found such a great doctor to help me through my journey.
Typically my experiences are very good. I do have a problem with their responses to voice-mail. At times, have never received a callback.
I experienced an incredibly thorough and professional appointment. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Hakim is second to none! Highly recommend.
I am an endocrinology patient, so I can only speak to that. Dr. Hakim is knowledgeable, of course, but she also listens and is very caring. My GP recommended her and I’m so glad that she did! I was also impressed with her PA, Jin (sorry, I can’t remember her last name). Her secretary told me that she was a doctor in China and she also is very knowledgeable and thorough. I would not hesitate to see her for my diabetes and Dr Hakim is following a thyroid nodule. I feel like I’m in good hands with both of them.For internal medicine, I go elsewhere. I don’t like the fact that the waiting room is always very crowded. (Pre-Covid).
Dr. Hiren Shah is a wonderful Dr. and person. He has cared for the health of my special needs brother with concern, dignity and great medical knowledge. Im highly satisfied with the attention we both get at this medical practice.
I appreciate the flexibility to schedule virtual visit and always receive excellent service from the staff there.
I absolutely love Dr. HAKIM, she has taken wonderful care of me, and continues to do so. She has always been concerned about my whole body not only my thyroid. I thank the Lord for her kindness and concern and yes I do tell everyone that she is the best!
All staff is wonderful! The Doctors and Nurse practitioner are Great! My whole family sees them. Would highly recommend this practice to anyone.
Jin & Dr Hakim are there for me always. Even late at night if need be Very caring as well as efficient. They are committed.to me as a patient and my health. So very pleased. So glad I found them. Incredible faith with them both .
Doctors and staff are very caring. You sometimes have to wait a bit, that is because they dont rush you in and out. They are very thorough and take care of your needs. Everyone there is very friendly. I would highly recommend.
Dr Hakim is thorough and takes the time to explain everything. Her staff is friendly and prompt.
I have been seeing Hiren Shah for over 20 years. He is the best. I recently moved to Florida and have maintained FIMES with video visits. So happy I haven’t had to switch. Love this place.
The option to have my annual checkup remotely was great! Had a little hitch at first with my technology, but Dr Shah stuck by me and we got through it! Easy talk, mailing the paperwork and done. Saved me the trip and potential exposure. Plus they dont have to clean a room!
I’ve had Dr. Hemen Shah as my primary care doctor for close to twenty years and appreciate his kindness, thoroughness and excellent medical care.
Great doctors but communications and web pages did not work. It is a painful to reach them.
Dr. Hakim is the best around! She truly cares for her patients & makes the appointment smooth, thorough & complete! I would definitely recommend her!
Dr.Hiren Shah is Awesome, from his bedside manner and approach re:patient care is Phenomenal. I appreciate him and his wonderful Staff.
Great docs, nurses & lab techs. Very happy with Frederick Happy Internal Medicine. I am so glad I found this practice!
Overall my visit was good and I was pleased with the efficiency of a telemedicine visit. I hope for an in person visit so I can get to know my provider better.
Dr. Hakim is very good, but this week I waited 1 hour and 45 minutes for a virtual appointment.
The Staff and Dr. Hemen Shah are always very courteous and understanding whenever I am there for Lab work or an office visit. Everyone is very helpful at all times.
Dr Hakim is the best. I travel 40 minutes in horrible traffic most of the time. It’s so worth it! She really listens.
We have used this service with Dr. Donelson for several years. My wife and I have been very pleased with his and his staffs service.
Staff helpful and friendly. Dr Hakim explains well and is easy to talk to.
I have used this practice for over 8 years and have always received excellent care I would never consider going any where else
Dr. Hakim is knowledgeable on current issues affecting the thyroid. She keeps me posted on current trends and medications.
Wonderful caring service from full staff. Drs. Shah and Donalsons service is Excellent. Knowledgeable, cutting edge of medicine and friendly folks.
Dr. Hemen Shah is an excellent doctor. His diagnostic skills have made a difference in my life.
Dr. Hiren Shah is so caring. I trust his judgement. Jackie, the care coordinator, is wonderful too.
I have a lot of confidence in my Dr..Dr.Hirn Shah hes very kind and intelligence.
Dr. Jin changed my life! I cant give her enough praise!
Staff is very attentive. Care is personalized. Doctors listen to patients.
I feel very fortunate to have found them and from that time I have progressed dramatically over the past year.
Very friendly and thorough.Answered questions
Lacking on scheduled time but overall great people they take excellent care of their patients
I like Dr Shah very much what I dont like is making an appointment for 9 and he gets there at 10 and the nurse informing me that he never gets in before 930 at the earliest.
Dr Hiren Shah is very efficient, kind & knowledgable.
I called to make a new patient appointment, I have been diagnosed with Polycystic ovarian syndrome, I wanted a second opinion and I have never received any response after giving my information to the receptionist. She said I would be contacted and never heard back, I guess you arent accepting new patients like your website says
Dr. Hakim goes above and beyond! I never feel rushed, but like I’m her only appointment for the day. She cares for my whole person, not just my thyroid ;) Highly recommend 💫
Very helpful and caring Doctor and staff
Our experience has been and continues to be professional, friendly and extremely on target!
Been with this practice for over 20 years. Would not change for money
Professional and pleasant every time.
Jen and the support staff at Frederick Internal Medicine is outstanding.
The staff and receptionists here are HORRIBLE!! I have NEVER been treated so badly by a medical practice in my life. I wasnt even able to make an appointment thats how rude they were!! The first time I called a receptionist named Karen I believe, picked up, I told her that my gynecologist recommended I see Dr. Hakim about my newly found underactive Thyroid, she then asked me if I was a new patient there and I said yes and then she quickly said You have to tell your referring physician to send your lab results to us before we can schedule an appointment. CLICK. Before I could say anything else she clicked me off to an automated voice messaging system. She didnt ask what my name was and I didnt have the chance to tell her that my doctor had already sent my results and information to their office. So after a week of calling them trying to schedule an appointment, leaving messages and such I have given up. They never called me back and I was never able to get a real person over the phone after that. I have no idea how good the doctors are but if you cant even make an appointment because the receptionists are so rude and nasty I dont think I want to know how the doctors are! Dont even bother trying with these people they are not worth your time and apparently you arent worth theirs
I loved my doctor at FIMES. However, I was never able to see him when I was supposed to. The office staff there is horrible and incredibly unorganized. I was once told that they didnt know where my records were, where my blood tests were, so therefore I was not a patient and they could not help me. Unbelievable lack of organization and people skills. I left the practice when my doctor did and things are MUCH better.
Great health care!
