"Dr. Amri is arrogant and rude. No one in his office knows what is going on but they will assure you it is not their fault. That is if you get to talk to a real person. Left multiple messages but no on calls you back. There has to be better options for a neurologist."

"Dr Amiri is a no nonsense, Brilliant Doctor. Thorough, deliberate, and extremely professional. He has helped me get through some puzzling neurological issues and with systematic testing identified what is causing my problems. His staff has been equally professional as well as cordial. ??"

"I was VERY disappointed and upset with this facility and Dr. Amiri on my first and last visit here. The physical examination was very slight, compared to the examination that I got as a second opinion. Dr. Amiri prescribed for me gabapentin though I said I did not want gabapentin as I had a bad experience with that nasty drug before. Though I have been dealing with much pain for months now, my "follow up" appointment was scheduled 5 weeks away! Unreal! I refused to accept the subscription of gabapentin and asked for the prescription to be changed to Flexeril, Naproxen and a light dosage of Vicodin instead. A prescription of Cybalta and a steroid pack was given instead. I had a bad experience with the Cybalta taking it the first night and I will never take that evil drug again! Dr. Amiri supposedly ordered a MRI for me and two days later I was called by his office and told to call the MRI office and schedule an appointment. However, when I called the MRI office they did not have the ...
referral and could not schedule it until they have the referral. This was on a Friday. I called Dr. Amiri's office and told the receptionist that the MRI clinic did not get the referral. She swore it had been sent, but then she found a problem and it would not be until the following Monday before it could be corrected and that she would call me on Monday when the referral was corrected so that I could schedule the MRI. It is Thursday now and I never got that call! So two days ago I went to another neurologist and got a much better examination and treatment. I do not recommend anyone to go to see Dr. Amiri when there are MUCH BETTER choices in Concord and Charlotte. I would avoid the Mecklenburg Neurology Group! "

"Horrible visit. Dr. Amiri must have failed his Medical School class in compassion and manners. He was rude, cut me off when I answered his questions, ordered tests without explaining why. I am 73 yo and have worked at Temple Orthopedics in Philadelphia for an Orthopedic Surgeon, spent three years in the admissions office of Drexel Medical School then worked at the Neurology Department as an Administrative Assistant. Dr. Amiri's office is horrible: rude front desk staff, long waits for an when you arrive at your appointment and no nurse call backs when you have medicine issues! He would be great at a career with his computer and no patient contact as his patient care is horrible. Go to Southern Pines or anywhere else before wasting your money or time."

"I’ve been a patient of Dr. Amiri‘s for about 10 months. I didn’t experience anything negative with the front desk or nurses checking me in. The 1 star is only for the nursing staff that I have had communication with. She deserve a lot more!! When the Dr Amiri came in, I didn’t necessarily mind him putting his phone on his computer, as I see others have mentioned, because I know sometimes doctors have emergencies, but I told him my 30 yr history of chronic migraines and all the many docs and meds I’ve tried. I really hoped that he was listening, but I feel like he’s out to lunch!!! I felt rushed to relay everything I needed to. I had told him I CANNOT take one particular class of popular migraine meds, and evidently he didn’t hear any of that. Very quickly I was out of the exam room, going to the pharmacy to pick up 2 well-advertised, brand-name migraine meds~ in the very class of medication I told him I physically couldn’t tolerate!!! Not only did insurance NOT cover this, but the pharmacy ...
doesn’t even keep it in stock because it is rarely ever prescribed! This is a national chain, if they don’t have any patients using it then there is a reason! Got prior authorization completed to cover the cost of those two meds, but the correct dosage and count wasn’t even written correctly! I paid $190 for two medications I cant use. (They only come in a box of 10 and his prescription was written for 9! WHO does This!? Have I just been spoiled after dealing with effective doctors all these years?) When those didn’t work I went through another 4-6 weeks of constant messages and TOTAL DISASTER at every turn, because what Dr. Amiri would call in was not even a dosage that is made for the medication he was prescribing. His nurse knew that certain dosages were no longer used by pharmacies, and I’m sure she reminded him. I cannot trust him to call in the simplest of scripts~~ even my pharmacy has had it with his nonsensical “prescribing.” It’s pathetic that a patient knows what the correct dosage of meds is and HE doesn’t, even after 20 years. This isn’t just a one time thing that he got mixed up, this has happened every single time I’ve had an interaction with him. This is deeply concerning and it makes me so angry. It’s also frightening to think he has patients in the hospital that he is overseeing and writing prescriptions for. At my very first initial visit he told me he wanted an MRI and a CT of my brain. Three months later~~ do you actually think he’s ever ordered them!?? I don’t know what’s going on with this man but he’s a loser as far as helping patients. If you’re in chronic pain, expect to wait days or weeks until he can get it together and write a prescription, and at that point you MUST immediately call pharmacist and ask if it was written correctly. Seriously considering contacting the medical board. His nurse must be made of GOLD, because she knows exactly what needs to be written, and she cannot get him to reply to her either. Michelle is so kind and overly patient. She deserves not only his salary, but 25 STARS for what she has to put up with! She’s 10 times more effective than he ever dared to be. I thought long and hard about writing this review and at this point I am over the mental anguish required to be his patient. What do I have to LOSE!?There s very little doctoring going on here. Gheesshhh...The most unprofessional person that’s ever held a medical license. "

"This office is terrible. The doctor does not listen to your concerns-ie being claustrophobic and sent for an MRI. I ended up having to be ordered a sedated MRI. Then I get to the hospital for the procedure and the order does not include sedation... I had to repeat my COVID test because they failed to send the orders to the facility. I’m sitting here at the hospital for an appointment that has been scheduled for more than a month without the proper orders. All I get from the person that answers the phone is, ‘you will have to reschedule because everyone is working remotely!’ That’s some BS. I can’t have someone repeatedly getting off work to take me to these appointments because of this office’s carelessness!"
