They were able to make sure I could make my appointment (virtual) when something changed at the last minute and I appreciate their ability and willingness to make sure I could move forward with all the information I need.

Dr. Ashkan Fahardi is an amazing doctor, he explained my issues very detailed. Not only was everything quick and to the grain. I left the room with a lot of information about my issues and the problems there are to solve. I was also given a book to inform myself about IBS and the common questions people like me tend to have, very excited to read it! It was a pleasure meeting Dr. Ashkan Fahardi and the whole staff in memorial care, amazing people!!!

I haven't been lucky enough to visit Dr Farhadi in his clinic. I was one of his students in his homeland. He taught us honor and professionalism rather than gastroentrology. I clearly remind the days he left. It seemed so odd because he was the most successful and well-known GI man and even internist in his city although he had some envious colleages too. We had heared some rumors about the hard days he had in the US. These days we realise the reason behind his decision better. In our perspective his choice was because of honor and dignity. I have the greatest respect for him!

Dr Farhadi is always such a pleasure to see. His bed side manner is so pleasant and welcoming. He explains everything so I can understand what is going on with me which I am very appreciative of. Doctors have a tendency to just say how they are treating while explaining what they are treating and how they came to that conclusion. I highly recommend Dr. Farhadi!

Went to this guy a couple of times after years of mysterious illness. He did an endoscopy, declared I had IBS and reflux. Gave me a book, and sent me on my way even though I had symptoms that didn't quite fit IBS. Told me I'll be fine. After another couple of years, same symptoms, saw him again (and many other GI doctors, but was at the end of my rope) and he said that "I'm just drinking too much water", refused to do any more tests, set follow up a couple months later.Shortly after that, emergency appendectomy. Surgeon asks two questions, and solves my 5+ year mystery illness. Biliary dyskinesia (gallbladder failure), I had a different doctor order a HIDA scan that confirmed it a couple weeks later.If you want to be dismissed, lumped into a pile of "you're too much work to figure out, here's a general nothing diagnosis, GL or whatever", definitely see this guy.If you're struggling with illness and seeing multiple doctors, keep going. The answer is out there, you will find it. It just takes the right doctor to see it. This guy is 20/200 at best.

Doctor is clearly intelligent but has poor bedside manner, sat me down and grilled me instead of being collaborative. Told me I was "fixated," his words, not mine. If your issue is chronic, and not standard or structural I would recommend going elsewhere!
Apr 17, 2026

Doctor prescribed me previous medications that I told him specifically that I could not tolerate. He just kind of brushed off my concerns, and went about it his own way. I already told him I took H2 blockers and PPI’s in the past and it did not change anything. He prescribed them to me anyway. I felt like my symptoms were dismissed and ignored.

Extremely Poor Experience – Would Not RecommendI had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Farhadi. From the beginning of the appointment, I explained that I’ve had chronic constipation for years—at times manageable with occasional laxatives, but recently worsening to the point where I now rely on them weekly, with decreasing effectiveness.Instead of offering a thoughtful or compassionate approach to explore possible root causes, Dr. Farhadi spent the majority of the visit explaining why my current efforts—such as hydration and dietary changes—would not help, without providing meaningful alternatives. It felt dismissive and unproductive.He performed a rectal exam without explaining what it would involve beforehand. As a healthcare provider myself, I understood what to expect, but it was concerning that he didn’t walk me through the procedure. I can only imagine how distressing that would be for someone without medical knowledge, as it is a very personal and invasive assessment.After the exam, he abruptly left the room, offering no time for me to ask questions or discuss anything further. He ordered an abdominal X-ray, which he explained to me showed no major blockage but only showed stool buildup which he told me would explain my discomfort. I thought this was somewhat silly that I could have easily told him, as that was the entire reason I sought his help.His follow-up message recommended Miralax and attempting to use the restroom at scheduled times. When I reminded him that I came to his office because I’d already been relying on laxatives and wanted to find a root cause to avoid long-term dependence, he simply replied that most cases of constipation are idiopathic. This felt once again like more negligent care. While some cases may be idiopathic, reaching that conclusion after a single static image and no further testing (e.g., for motility issues, SIBO, microbiome imbalance, or inflammation) is not thorough care.Overall, Dr. Farhadi showed poor bedside manner, left no time for patient conversation, and took a superficial approach to a complex issue. I would not recommend him to anyone seeking thoughtful or investigative gastrointestinal care.
