    Dr Hameed use to take his time but the last visits he doesn't take many questions. He talks the enter time and seems very impatient and in a hurry. Ratings for this physician used to be very high. Perhaps too busy now.

    He possessed great communication skills---checked whether or not I understood what he had explained; empowered me to decide my course of the diagostic process based on facts, and was just a nice guy.

    Dr. Hameed explained everything in detail. I was very pleased with how you explained everything
    Aug 14, 2023
    I was an amazing gift to interact with an MD who actually looked at my "too long history re medical" even my labs, plus he offered me hope by suggesting other doctors who may help.
    Aug 12, 2023
    My doc was very thorough in his explanations. He took the time to discuss my thoughts about my biopsy experience.
    Jul 29, 2023
    This was the best part of my visit.
    Jul 13, 2023
    There was a little confusion between my physician and ucsf on the appointment. My physician thought I was getting biopsy the day of appointment but it was a consultation to schedule biopsy.
    Jul 06, 2023
    FIND PEOPLE WHO WANT TO LISTEN AND WANT TO WORK. THE RECEPTIONIST WAS RUDE AND PARANOID ABOUT THE USE OF A MASK. THE TECHNICIAN WAS INEFFICIENT. EVEN THE READING OF MY ECHO WAS POOR. SO HOWE CAN I GET PROPER TREATMENT IF THE PEOPLE OFFERING SERVICE ARE NOT DOING THGEIR JOB
    Jul 01, 2023
