Excellent physician and practice; been with them for a long time; even as a child it's the best place to go. They care about your concerns explain everything in detail make a plan and work through it and succeed. Always have felt not only do they do their job, but they also actually care for their patients.

I haven't received test results yet from this provider. My test are May 8. I'm sure my doctor will discuss the results with me in a way I will understand. This was my first time seeing this doctor . I feel confident that she will find out what is wrong with me so we can arrange how to take care of it.

I appreciate the kindness I have experienced while attending this UofL neurological office. I have felt listened to and heard as I have shared my hopes and concerns. I have felt comfortably safe asking any questions I have had on my mind. This recent visit was my first with Lahoma. Every other visit has been with Dr. Shafer. Every appointment I have had has created peace in my heart and a smile on my face. Thank you!

Dr. Lahoma is so compassionate and thorough. I was terrified and needed a full understanding in order to fully process what I have experienced these last five months. Absolutely love her and would highly recommend her.
