    I needed to see a new neurologist and "Dr. A." (as he is…read moreknown), Mourad Abdelmessih MD., at 1916 Tamarack Rd. in Newark, OH was suggested to me by another Yelper, my daughter. Admittedly, I was hesitant to make the drive all the way to Newark. Since I was unfamiliar with Newark, however Yelp provided clear directions to get there by traveling out Dublin-Granville Rd. (Rte. 161) from Columbus. It was encouraging to see that the parking lot had ample provisions for handicapped parking adjacent to the front entrance, where I could easily navigate with my walker. Since I'd already filled out most of the necessary paperwork sent to me, my check-in time was greatly reduced. I had been told earlier that I would feel at ease with Dr. A., and welcome his friendly personality and professional thoroughness in dealing with me as a prospective patient. As I looked around the simple waiting room, I saw the typical magazine rack with contemporary albeit up-to-date reading material, a water fountain with hot and cold water, and unusual wallpaper along the entire wall, that pulled me into the picture that depicted a beautiful relaxing garden setting. From the time of my arrival at Mid-Ohio Neurology, when my wife and I met the receptionist, Heather, at the front window, she was able to allay my anxiety about seing a new Neurologist and my concern that this might mean I would be "starting all over again" after several years with my former doctor. As my wife and I sat in the waiting room, only a few minutes later, my name was called to step onto the Truck Scale and get weighed before following her again to a patient room. I'm certain that Kristy sensed my anxiety when she took my blood pressure. Normally my BP is actually low, but my anxiety, and trepidation about seeing a new Neurologist resulted in a higher reading. She attempted to calm me by asking me about the issues I was having that brought me to see Dr. Abdelmessih. She then commented that I would like "Dr. A." just as my daughter, who set up my appointment, told me, "I would really "love" Dr, A. Then, Kristy told me he would be in shortly, left the room and closed the door. After that happened, my anxiety and tremors jumped into high gear. My wife tried to help me calm me. It's pretty obvious to my wife that I get anxious and my tremors increase when meeting a new doctor about my Parkinson's. Well, that's why I'm here! I would have been willing to wait 30 mins. or longer for the doctor to come in, but it was only a minute or so before he walked in. Mispronouncing his name, he laughed, which helped put me more at ease, yet I quickly asked if I could call him Dr. A. He told me, "Of course you can and probably should after butchering his name the way I had." Again, I relaxed a little more. Then he proceeded to talk to me about my issues, about my life, and then conducted more tests within my examination. By this time, I was putty in his very capable hands. We discussed meds I was taking and asked if my wife and I thought they were working. He seemed to have all the time in the world to conduct his examination and talk to us. This was just what I needed. By the end of his examination, nearly an hour long, he provided his diagnosis, his medical plan of action and prognosis. My wife and I were very relieved, yet surprised that he didn't look at things that had already been done, but instead started with a clean slate. Wow! That's just what we hoped would happen. He told us how he was planning to wean me from medications that were not working as they should and introduce me to prescription for a new medicine that I'd never tried before. Then, he said he wanted to see me again in one month, rather than the typical four-month followup I was used to. Before leaving he asked us if we had any other questions and said if I had any problems, be sure to call me. I thanked him and as we were making my next appointment with Heather, Alexis, another M.A. talked to us and gave me a 30 day supply of samples of the new medicine. Alexis told us, that Dr. A. didn't want me to pay for a medicine that I was uncertain whether it would work or not. On the way back to our car, my wife and I looked at each and said, "I like this guy!" If you are looking for a Neurologist who will take the time to investigate your issues, treat you as someone who is working with your doctor in the same team, and demonstrate professional attention to your personal Neurological issues; Diabetic Neuropathy, M.S., memory loss, migraines, Fibromyalgia, Parkinson's Disease, or another Neuroligical disorder, Dr. A. at Mid-Ohio Neurology is the man to see.

Even though he said the joint was fine, but I could not walk correctly without pain, Do not go to this doctor. He does not care, he does quantity not quality.

    As I sit here on another Sunday afternoon trying to keep my blood pressure down and psych myself up…read morefor the week ahead, because I know the pain I will be in. This situation which now is affecting my mental health started a month ago. During a January snowstorm I drove myself to the Diley Ridge emergency with leg and knee pain. During the visit I was given an ultrasound to look for a blood clot. I was given a shot of Lovanox and schedule an appointment with Mt. Carmel East for another ultrasound the next day. I drove to the hospital the next day during a level three emergency to be told I do not have a blood clot. I was still in pain but no one bothered to ask or consider another option. I was dismissed and went home. A week later I am at the Diley Ridge emergency hospital again with more intense knee pain, they even recognize that I was just there. This time I get an x-ray which shows I have some arthritis, I'm sent home with a script for ibuprofen, a leg stabilizer, and told to follow up with my PCP. All the while I'm icing and trying to figure out how to manage the pain and continue to work on my feet all day. My PCP sent a script for Meloxicam to help with inflammation and pain. I tried the medicine for a few days but even with food it made me vomit. My PCP sent a referral to OrthoNeuro and I waited for a call, which I never received. I finally called them on a Monday and was able to get an appointment that same Wednesday. I am very familiar with OrthoNeuro as I had three carpal tunnel release surgeries the previous year. For my knee pain I was scheduled with Mark Gittins. In my roughly ten minute consultation he told me to get rid of the stabilizing brace (I should be letting my knee do what it's supposed to do, use over the counter Voltaren for the arthritis and sent a referral for an MRI. Nothing was addressed about my actual knee pain. After about another week I am in so much pain I find myself at Mt. Carmel East emergency room, actually in hysterical tears because the pain continues with no relief. This time I'm given a shot in the rear for inflammation and sent a script for OxyCodone and ibuprofen. While in the ER I requested an MRI since one has not been scheduled for me yet. I was told no. I had to take off work the next day due to continued pain. I did receive a call finally to schedule an MRI. I was told my insurance requires a ten day period to get an MRI approved. At that time I was scheduled for an MRI March 3rd, 2026, which was still three weeks away. I sent a note explaining my situation and miraculously the next day I was called with an approval and scheduled an MRI the next day. Finally I thought I would get some relief. I had my MRI the next day at 7:30am immediately after the MRI I called and left a message with Dr. Gittins voicemail around 8am. In the meantime the results of my MRI are posted to MyChart. I did not receive a call, I left a message the next day, I did not receive a call. Friday came and went, no call. Which brings me to today, my pain continues as my anxiety rises because I have to work and I know what the pain feels like at the end of my shift and it makes me sick to my stomach. As I sit here and try not to be sarcastic about any of this I wonder when someone will decide to call me and help. Unfortunately I have no other option except to be seen at OrthoNeuro due to my insurance. I already have little faith in this institution due to my carpal tunnel release surgeries (I will not get into that situation as this letter has already taken up so much of my time). At this point I have no other option but to write this review because I am in need of some help and relief.
