Texas Regional Asthma, Allergy, & Immunology Center - Dr. Shakouri

Texas Regional Asthma, Allergy, & Immunology Center

SEE EDIT BELOW I…read morewould not recommend this allergy clinic to anyone. During my first visit, Dr. Shakouri was very dismissive of the fact that my profession as an airline pilot strictly limits which medications I am allowed to take. Despite my repeated concerns and the FAA medication restrictions, he continued to push for a "large dose" of an allergy medication until I finally said, "I would rather not." I was later scheduled for allergy skin testing and a sinus CT scan. The front desk provided written instructions, which I followed exactly. Those instructions also clearly stated that I would be contacted in advance with pricing if my insurance did not cover the tests. That never happened. On the day of the appointment, I was unexpectedly told I owed $300 for the allergy testing (which I reluctantly agreed to) and $150 for the sinus CT scan (which I declined). I expressed my frustration to Dr. Shakouri, after which he issued a refund, and I chose to terminate care with this office. Overall, this was a very frustrating and unprofessional experience. Poor communication, disregard for occupational medical restrictions, and irresponsible front office practices. I now have to start the entire process over again elsewhere. I do not recommend this practice. EDIT: Just in case it gets deleted, Denise K (business owner) commented below: "It's sad patients can say anything they want on social media whether it's true or not" My response to Denise K. whom accurately proves my point about this allergy clinic: What's actually sad is dismissing legitimate patient concerns by implying they're untrue, rather than addressing them professionally. My review reflects my firsthand experience as a patient and the interaction I had in your office. If any part of it were inaccurate, a respectful clarification would be appropriate -- not a blanket attempt to discredit patients for speaking publicly. Reviews exist so future patients can make informed decisions based on real experiences.

The doctors may be fine but they have no regard for their clientele. They have Fox News on repeat…read morein the waiting room. When I asked if they could change it to something, anything; neutral - weather, HGtV, cooking, the answer was no. The doctor insists. Considering I have to wait after 30 min an allergy shot, this is rude and downright torture. I even asked if I could wait in my car as was told no. So patients are required to listen to biased drivel. Why do they even need a TV? Everyone has a phone? Just cruel and pointless.

This clinic is terrible. Communication is all but nonexistent. My mom has to go there by ambulance…read moredue to tracheostomy, vent and O2 support. She's supposed to have monthly appointments working toward decannulation. This year, she has missed four already. In one case, she had a gastric bleed and had to be hospitalized for two weeks that stretched across an upcoming appointment. Her pulmonologist is resident at that hospital and was seeing patients while she was there, so we requested well in advance that he see her at her ICU room. The request was never communicated to the doctor, so we missed that month's appointment. Then we discovered that he was taking the entire next month off for his honeymoon out of the country. We resumed two months later, but the following appointment was screwed up when the scheduler, who gave us the appointment card with time and date at that previous appointment, failed to actually schedule it. We arrived by ambulance only to be told that the mistake was theirs but that it could not be corrected because the doctor was booked solid. Two months after that, the doctor had told us that he wanted to see her in two weeks so that we could move forward with decannulation, but the soonest the office could manage was three weeks. The day before the appointment, we received a voicemail just before 6pm (with the appointment being first thing the next morning) from his assistant inexplicably canceling the appointment. It appears that she had failed to follow up on an order for speech therapy before the appointment and was responding to her own error. Oh, and then the next morning we got a text message saying WE had missed the appointment. We tried the rest of the week to get someone to get back with us for an explanation and the replacement appointment. We finally got through the next week to be told that the month was booked solid and that it would have to be some five weeks later in the following month - again, two months after the last appointment. We like the doctor, but the clinic is a train wreck. Calls don't get returned for a week or longer when they even are returned at all (most are not). As often as not, the communication when someone is reached by phone is rushed and tense. This is destroying my mom's health because the trach has been an ongoing source of infection, left in place even though she has been on the absolute minimum vent settings for five months. The existence of the trach means she has to be fed through a PEG tube, which in turn prevents us from switching her from hemodialysis, which is quite hard on the body, to vastly easier and safer peritoneal dialysis. Her doctor is worthy of four stars. The clinic gets one star because I can't give it zero.

Extremely unprofessional! I was hung up on 4 times today after 2 weeks of calling and leaving…read morevoicemails, never receiving a call back. I cannot speak to the friendliness and professionalism of the doctors themselves, but the staff has proven to be beyond unprofessional from: not answering phone calls, not returning voicemails, not possessing a professional/friendly tone, and lack of competence. In my last attempt to seek care from someone in their office I spoke with Daisy, she was friendly and helpful in taking my information and promising a call back tomorrow.

I have been a patient of Dr. Wakwaya's for going on a year soon and have never been more thankful…read morefor being admitted to being a patient!! Dr. Wakwaya is very knowledgeable, thorough, and has really helped educate me and my family on my health and longterm plans. He was able to work with my other teams of doctors to determine an extremely rare diagnosis. But also, the entire staff there is absolutely darling. I know that I can call or email Erin or Christina any questions and they're very responsive, and if for some reason they're going to be out they provide easy instructions for getting in contact with others on the team that can help. Dr. Wakwaya's patient rooms nurse also so kind and will inform you of any vaccines that they have that are recommended for my condition (such as boosters) and it has really helped me stay ahead of any respiratory illness! The respiratory therapy team is HILARIOUS. I think I've seen at least 3 now throughout the various types of tests and they sure know how to make weird breathing tests entertaining and easy! I've had breathing tests elsewhere many times and sometimes they can be super laboring to the point I want to cry, but the only tears I'm shedding with y'all are tears of laughter. The vitals team, always so friendly and helpful with directing you through the patient itinerary! Phlebotomy, another joyous bunch, they've made me so comfortable, I trust their steady hands! I'm to the point where I can even watch them do it, couldn't do they before and I had had dozens if not hundreds of blood draws before! The check-in crew, talk about an operation! We as patients sometimes have really long back to back appointments and somehow y'all keep track of us and make sure we're getting to where we need to be. Thank you, it can be confusing for us sometimes! I don't want to assume, but as a patient it really feels like everyone likes working there or if they don't, we as patients sure don't know it! Anyway, I've seen over a hundred doctors in my young life and this practice is the MVP. No disrespect to any of my other fabulous doctors either because I do have insanely amazing other doctors too! Y'all are just THAT good and go THAT much above and beyond, I am so very thankful!!! Thank you!

I've been a patient with Dr. Amir Khan (Pulmonology) and David Mason (Thoracic Surgeon) since 2012…read more I initially began seeing Dr. Khan in an effort to manage my Tracheal Stenosis. Over time, my respiratory health continued to de line and he referred me to a Thoracic Surgeon for further treatment. Over the past few years, I have had several Broncoscopes with balloon dilation. This year, I was forced to make the hard decision to install a permanent tracheostomy. My trach has increased my quality of life ten-fold. I am able to truly live again and not be tied down at home on continuous oxygen therapy. As a matter of fact, on January 12, 2020 my family and I will board the Carnival Freedom for a seven day Caribbean Cruise to the Bahamas. I have recieved 9 years of continued and excellent care from Dr. Khan and the staff at Pulmonics Plus. #myStoryContinues #trachLife #trachPride

Absolutely horrible. Took them 6 months to do a sleep study, get me approved, and get my apap…read moremachine. This is no exaggeration! Today they called ME telling me I need to schedule a virtual visit due to insurance requirements and was told a virtual appointment for me for todayat 2:45. Well, I never got the link they said they'd send and no one ever called me and it's now 4:30. Apparently insurance doesn't require this too badly or they would have scheduled it as they said. I don't like being lied too!! If you say you're gonna do something...do it!! And good luck getting through. EVERY time I call, noone ever answers! I'm tempted to take the machine back and say forget it!! I can't sit and wait all day until you decide to call, which never happens! Such incompetence at this place!! It's honestly been a nightmare this entire process!! Would NOT recommend these people!!

Like with any doctor or dentist I feel there needs to be a partnership where the doctor and patient…read morework together. When this doesn't exist I find the physician will just do the basic checks, write a prescription and send the patient on their way. Total time with the physician ends up being 10 minutes or less. I once had a physician like this and after the third visit I informed him I would not return and why. I'm thankful to say Dr. Ghazi respects and encourages the doctor/patient partnership. I've been a patient of Dr. Ghazi for the past ~18 months and have nothing but good things to share. Whenever I have an appointment she is on time and allocates time to listen to me as I discuss how things are going. I am pleased with our results to date. My allergies are well controlled with minimal amount of meds. Having gone through 'immunotherapy' (allergy shots) a couple times in a previous life with 2 different allergists I was not looking forward to repeating it upon moving to Dallas. To her credit Dr. Ghazi has not pushed me to repeat them. Instead we are monitoring my allergies and will adjust our plan according to how I do. How about that? No mandate to complete another course of immunotherapy. I am super appreciative of this approach. And if that isn't enough, when I first began visiting Dr. Ghazi, she informed me the goal was to reduce my allergy meds to the bare minimum and if possible to completely eliminate them. While I'm not down to zero, I am taking a lesser amount with a much lower dosage. I love a doctor who is NOT a pill pusher. Dr. Ghazi is very respectful of her patient's time. She (and the office staff) are punctual. And she accomplishes this while still spending the required time to communicate with her patients. Whenever I have an appointment for a specific issue (mostly a sinus infection; I've dealt with chronic infections for many years) she asks questions to identify a course of action. Sometimes it results in antibiotic and other times it's to continue the course I am already taking without any additional prescription meds. If you're looking for an allergy specialist you can stop your search. Dr. Ghazi is the doctor for you.

I have suffered for years (over 25) from awful allergies. And for years they were misdiagnosed…read more Although I did have an allergist, and he was very good, Dr. Ghazi came to my attention, and I am SO glad. Within minutes of walking into her office for a consult, she told me immediately several things that were wrong, got me on the right prescriptions and more than, literally fought my with insurance company to get me specialty injections that have completed renewed my health. While I am not 100 firing on thrusters yet, we're getting there. She and her staff are extremely professional, yet kind and supportive. I think she is literally one of the best doctors I've ever been to. I simply cannot recommend her enough. You have allergies - go see her!
