Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Compassionate and caring
I was referred to Dr Taha after 2 er visits and seeing a neurosurgeon. She is very compassionate and truly cares about her patients. I am new to her practice, and she performed an epidural within 2 days of seeing me, plus before I left for vacation she saw me for trigger point injections to try and help elevate some pain. Her office staff have all been a big help and are also very supportive and friendly. I would recommend Dr. Taha 100%.

Dr. Taha isn’t a good doctor, she is a great doctor. I have been a patient for over 6 years. She has advised, and greatly helped with my back and leg pain. I have had over 14 surgeries, spine and knee. It’s easy to make an appointment and if you email her with a question or request, she will respond. She will do her best to help you relieve your pain.

Giving 1 star is me being generous. If I could give 0 stars I would. Dr. Taha is condescending in the worst way. I work in a different field of medicine and the way she treated a close family member of mine is far from acceptable. By the looks of these other reviews, she must pick favorites. The staff is rude and unprofessional - must I say very immature. She makes assumptions without getting to know her patients. She's arrogant and she seems like she was probably forced into this field by her parents growing up. The field of medicine and pain management is for people who have compassion for others - which she is truly lacking.

The worst experience ever with Dr. Taha. She is not very knowledgeable, extremely rude, condescending, and lacks the slightest bit of bedside manner. She has no idea what she's doing and when asked questions, snapped back saying "I know what I'm talking about. I'm the doctor here." and constantly rolled her eyes. It's as if having patients is an inconvenience. She's also constantly checking her phone and texting during the visit.

Dr. Taha has been an absolute blessing to my girlfriend and in turn to me. During many bad pain episodes I had to take my girlfriend to see Dr. Taha. Dr. Taha always made time for her no matter what and I would take part in my girlfriend's examinations by Dr. Taha, who was always so patient and caring. Dr. Taha would come up with more suggestions and solutions to combat her pain. My girlfriend under the care of Dr. Taha has been transformed back to health. Dr. Taha is a true 10 in my book.

I have been Dr. Taha's patient for 3 years. She saw me thru many months of incredible pain and 2 back surgeries. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always looking for new methods and solutions to help heal you. She inspired me to be the best I could be and has given me my life back. The people who wrote these bad reviews about Dr. Taha must have her confused with someone else. I do not think Dr. Taha even knows how to be rude. Dr. Taha is fabulous in every way.

I've been seeing Dr. Nora Taha for over 5 years now. I recently saw her (3-20-18) for a lower back non-surgical procedure, where she burned some nerves at the L3,L4,L5 (bulged disks) on both sides to help alleviate pain and discomfort. This procedure allows me to function on a daily basis. Most importantly, this process lasts for about a couple of years. I definitely would recommend anyone with lower back issues to Dr. Taha .

Dr. Taha is a life saver! I had been having chronic back pain for years and she was the only doctor to figure out my issue. We did a few injections and now my pain is all gone! She is really knowledgeable and cares for her patients. You can tell she takes pride in her work. I would highly recommend her! Side note... she takes late appointments once a week, which is really helpful if you need to see a doc after work!

Dr. Taha is very knowledgeable, spends a lot of time explaining all the test and treatments. She went the extra mile to make sure I was able to see specialists and get the care I needed. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

I was very disappointed in Dr. Taha. She mishandled my pain issues and caused me to have weeks of extreme back pain. I ultimately had to go to a neuro surgeon who figured everything out immediately and I did have to have surgery. The thing that I most disliked about her was that she was dismissive of me when I explained my pain after 2 epidurals and I was still not better. She waved me off when I suggested she study the CD. She does not take the time to think outside the box!

Dr. Taha deserves "0" stars. The rudest doc that I have ever come in contact with while caring for my mom. She entered the exam room with an attitude.During the interview, I clearly annoyed her when helping explain my moms condition (she is 81 and forgets sometimes). She snapped at me to stop asking questions. Her attitude towards me was rude and very unprofessional. I am horrified by her behavior. If you are looking for a condescending, "fresh"(per my mom),privileged princess, look no further.
