    Unprofessional, arrogant, and rude. My 1 year old child was sick and when my wife called the office on a Saturday afternoon since the office was closed it forwarded to the doctors phone. Instead of helping, Nadeem Hashmi yelled at my wife telling her to ā€œrespect the doctors timeā€ and said ā€œthis isnā€™t your personal help lineā€ because it was after-hours around 3pm and I guess he wasnā€™t happy about the phone call coming to him. He didnā€™t put any effort to listen to what the issue was and wouldnā€™t let my wife explain the reason for the call. No one has ever talked to my wife as rudely as he did. Insanely arrogant. Absolutely unacceptable for a pediatric doctor to behave like that when a first-time parent is calling for help or advice in an already stressful time. He didnā€™t feel like listening so he finally ended up just saying ā€œtake her to the ERā€ without understanding the reason she called. We did not take her to the ER and we have switched pediatricians since. Our new doctors office has an amazing after hours support system. If you canā€™t handle after hours calls then you should switch careers or retire but donā€™t take your anger out on your patients. Iā€™ll be forwarding a full complaint to the Maryland Board of Physicians regarding this incident and hope it doesnā€™t happen to anyone else.

    I've been taking my daughter to Dr. Hashmi since she was a preemie in the NICU and a decade later I still take her there. He's a great doctor!

    If I could give 0 stars, I would. Doctor dismissed my symptoms while they were clearly displayed in the office. Labs were not followed up on. Communication was rude and untimely.

    Dr.Hashmi has been our pediatrician since my 10yo was born and now also my 5yo since he was bornā€¦ Very courteous office staff, always able to get a same day sick visit and very short wait time.

    I am very disappointed in how this office treats patients. Tell me how would you feel if the doctor goes straight to the point on how youā€™ve been missing appointments for reason that are caused by insurance & doesnā€™t even greet you or ask you how are you are you okay ? But goes directly into telling you that usually stuff like that happens youā€™re dismissed after 3 missed appointments. I found that very rude and unprofessional, she couldā€™ve explained that to me after my appointment was over. Overall my appointment was less than 10min & I came in for a ā€œphysicalā€. She didnā€™t check my eyes on how they normally do for a physical and when asking for a refill on a prescription she gave me completely nonsense and no help. I just find it very rude how you welcome your patients after not seeing them for a while. I work for medical services as well and know how it is, but that should never give you a reason to be rude and with a tone in your voice.

    Moved to this pediatrician because I needed a second opinion on my 4 month old baby coming from another office that I felt I was not taken seriously when it came to my concerns with my child I was super nervous it would happen again and I am extremely pleased to say that did NOT happen! Dr.Hashmi was extremely patient and understanding and broke down every little concern that I had. The staff was also super friendly, patient and helpful!
