Shaheedy Mohamad MD

Im very happy that dr shaheedi is my twins dr, he is the best baby’s doctor I’ve ever seen. He greatly helped us with our twins, highly recommended to everyone who has a baby .‍

I have been taking my daughter to Dr. Shaheedy for years. Dr. Noosha is wonderful, so caring and detailed. However the front desk staf is terrible, they rush to get you off the phone as quickly as possible without even asking if it is an emergency. They don’t even want to hear why you’re calling. I had an incident where I was just returning the dr.‘s call and didn’t want him to worry about calling me back again and the woman on the phone didn’t ask me to leave a message, I had to tell her to take a message.
It is really a shame that such wonderful practice is being damaged by the bad reputation of their staff.

When it comes to choosing doctors, I have to say I am a little biased against choosing Persian doctors (because I am Persian, I can say that). Most of them are not as up-​to-​date as I would like them to be and they carry old world traditions in their practices (from my personal experience — I am not judging all doctors, just those that I have come in contact with). That being said, I LOVE DR. SHAHEEDY. Does he always tell me what I want to hear? No. Does he always agree with me? No. But is he honest, available, caring, respectful and knowledgeable? ABSOLUTELY. In fact, he was MY pediatrician… which means he’s been doing this for 30+ years and his daughter is a pediatrician too. I have taken my little one to both Drs. and I love them both but Dr. Shaheedy (the dad) is hands down one of the most knowledgeable, capable and attentive doctors I have met. I interviewed plenty of Peds before I chose him (being that my husband and I are SUPER picky borderline OCD) and Dr. Shaheedy just made me feel like he is the best fit for my family. (This review has nothing to do with his staff, which honestly could definitely be better — the older persian lady in his front office just gets on my nerves with the way she talks to me and the attitude she has — example: before I took my 2 month old to get shots, I called to ask about giving her Tylenol first. The staff lady (whom I thought was a nurse) told me «do whatever you want — ya sure give her tylenol») and my instinct and some google searching led me not to — and I get there and the nurse was like «nooo dont give medicine unless she needs it and Dr. Shaheedy agreed — like really lady? Why ARE YOU GIVING ADVICE?. That really bothered me — so I just bypass her when I call or go to the office. But back to the point — you can’t go wrong with Shaheedy.

Dr. Shaheedy is a wonderful pediatrician. He is incredibly diligent, knowledgeable and a warm doctor. He was my daughter’s original doctor when she was born but we temporarily moved away and are now back with him again, thankfully. He is a caring doctor and one of the few I happily trust my daughter with in a nutshell.

Dr. shaheedy is an amazing pediatrician! ! He has been my daughter’s Dr since she was born and he is GREAT. The staff is nice and the facility is clean and well maintained. He treats every patient as if it was his own. Very lucky to have him as my daughter’s Dr.

Dr. Shaheedy is super. We started going to him after my doctor recommended him when our son was born more than 5 years ago. We never had any complaints with Dr. Shaheedy. Even the nurses are very nice, the office is seldom crowded. Their billing department may not be up to my expectations but then I have seen worse.
Dr. Shaheedy was always available on phone, promptly called back no matter what day of the week and accommodated us with an appointment if we needed to see him the same day. His office is also open half a day on Saturday. He was supportive in our first few years as new parents and was very patient with our silly panic calls. Another quality that he has that we have come to appreciate as parents is that he is conservative with respect to tests he orders. He is highly experienced and has accurately diagnosed my son’s over the phone except for once when my son had a mild chicken pox but one look and he was right on target. His predictions about how long the symptom will last and how they change with time were very accurate. I am not just talking about small ones but we had a major panic situation when our son started to stutter at the age of 2.5 years. Dr. Shaheedy was very patient with us and always assured us that it will go away by the time he turns 5 and even if it does not we should leave him alone till then. Thankfully, it went away (I hope for good) when he was 4.5 years old.
My son loves him too. He was barely 1.5 or 2 years old when he had cough related wheezing and we saw Dr. Shaheedy. Dr. Shaheedy gave him inhaler on spot and also prescribed some. At that tender age, my son knew this guy is not just to hurt him with needles but also makes him feel better. Our son used to get very excited about seeing his pediatrician. That is probably very rare.
We were very sad when we had to move out of the city and even now when I went looking for a pediatrician for our kids I hold the doctor up to Dr. Shaheedy’s standard.

We love Dr. Shaheedy. I interviewed him 3 years ago when I was pregnant with our first child, and the things he told me are true to this day. He said that if his patients needed to get a hold of him on the weekend, he would be available, and I can attest to that. I just needed to get a refill on a prescription this weekend, and when I called the office it was forwarded to his cell phone and he took care of it no problem. He is always patient in answering our questions both in person and over the phone, it is easy to get appointments, and he is sweet to our kids (we now have 2 who have never known any other pediatrician except for the other Dr. Shaheedy, who is also in this office on certain days and we also recommend). He puts us at ease with our concerns as well. We now live nearly an hour away from his office but we still drive there because we are very happy with him. My husband and I would definitely recommend both Shaheedy’s!
