So, as stressful as it is to have a family member with a neurological disorder, I feel like the…read morecompassion shown to my mother at Renown with Dr. Peng has been a positive experience. His thick accent makes it hard for my parents to understand him, so my sister or I need to go to translate, plus we want to know what's going on. He seems genuinely concerned about her brain health, and is always open to hearing our concerns or answering our many questions. Today was her fourth appointment with him in his office, he asked her a series of questions to test her memory and word expression. He said he was pleased her memory seems the same/intact and that while with her neurological disorder that has impaired her speech, she seems to not have gotten worse. He recommended another MRI, PET scan, EEG and blood work. She spent a week in the hospital about 6 months ago conducting a week long EEG and a spinal tap to diagnose what auto-immune disease she has that has caused brain swelling and therefore has damaged the communication area of her brain and has impacted her speech. Not a lot has been discovered from that stay, which is pretty disappointing. We may look into the Mayo Clinic or another neurologist perhaps in Vegas. Dr. Peng is great, but I wonder if another practice has more to offer. Second opinions are always good, too. I only have personal knowledge from our appointments with Dr. Peng, although there are other neurologists within that practice.

I had my first appointment with Renown Neurology on Wednesday, August 2nd. I had an 8am…read moreappointment with Dr. Lee Gerwitz and was seen by Dr. Gerwitz, his nurse practitioner and a neurology resident. Dr. Gerwitz was very kind and very thorough in his workup and discussion of my nausea and vomiting issues encountered after kidney dialysis. I will be seeing Dr. Gerwitz again at the end of October for another follow-up appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Gerwitz, he is very kind, knowledgeable and immediately put me at ease. I appreciated his thoroughness and his kind, professional manner. I recommend him highly.

As far as doctor's go, Dr. Spivack is great. However, I have to share my experience with their…read moreRenown office to those of you who are looking for good care. I have been going to his office at Renown for a couple of years now. I am freshly postpartum with a nine week old baby who just got his vaccinations yesterday. I left the house with plenty of time to spare, but was 20 minutes late due to circumstances out of my control - something was spilled all over the highway leading to stand still traffic. I arrive to the office and was told he has a full schedule and can't see me today after I just spent an hour plus in traffic with a fussy newborn. I absolutely respect people's time and tried to explain my situation as best as I could letting them know how I made extensive effort to be there although I was 10 minutes past their 10 minute late policy. They were not understanding and held their ground. I then canceled my appointments with them altogether and, freshly postpartum, left the office crying. After being a patient there for years, I was given no grace or understanding. Medical assistants and office staff were not empathetic or understanding to a situation that is clearly a genuine extenuating circumstance entirely out of my control. If you're looking for a Renown office that offers empathy and humanity, this office is unfortunately lacking.
