On time and very helpful

Dr. Salim was an amazing doctor. She called, she listened to my concerns, and she followed up the next day. Also, she messaged the other doctors that were involved in my care on my behalf. I haven't had a doctor that has been that caring and diligent in a long time. I'm glad you guys have her in your team, and I appreciate the fact that you took my concern and listened to me. Thank you so much.

The staff were all great! the building was surprisingly dirty - there was trash in the elevator and it really need the floor cleaned. That was sort of off-putting, along with the construction around the front door. It made the building seem run-down. But the clinic was fine and the people were nice. :-)

Dr. FARDOWS SALIM Did an excellent job, listening to my problems and helping solve it. She gave me her time and also her ears. I would recommend her 1000 times she knew what she was doing.

I really appreciated the promptness throughout my entire visit. Not a minute of my time was wasted! The wait to check-in was very brief, and the person at the front desk was friendly, professional, and competent. They did an excellent job with being both quick and thorough, and set me up with all of the information and instructions I needed. I was called back within mere minutes of getting to the clinic for my appointment. The wait for Dr. Salim was also very brief, so I am very impressed with the schedule management. I was also able to go practically straight from the exam room to the lab. I sat and waited for hardly a minute before I was taken back for my blood draw. The person who performed my blood draw also excelled with professionalism, competence, and kindness. I used to work in a very busy medical practice where long, long waiting times for patients were extremely commonplace. I know the standard I saw for my appointment with Dr. Salim was difficult to achieve and very much hard-earned. Thank you.

I was disappointed by one of the doctors previously but now, I am very happy to have found Dr. Salim.

Wait time. Waited for nearly 30 minutes for doctor and only had about 12 minutes 1 on 1 time with doctor. It felt rush. I was asked the same question by the nurse and then the doctor asked the same, so not very efficient to ask the same questions, especially if the inf is not being relayed.

Everything went smoothly

I did wish to have a little more detailed explanation of my test results. I felt that I was left questioning why my levels were the way they were, I don't know what to look out for, what to be aware of, if anything. I was concerned that some were high or low and really would have liked a better understanding as I'm not a scientist.

Dr Salim makes Fairview an excellent Place to visit.

Dr. Salim was very helpful helping me change prescriptions from a psychiatric provider who was not serving me anymore, and that was really important. So I no longer need to see a psychiatrist that was not fitting my needs. I was really glad that my primary care physician could take care of that for me.

Good!

The nurse was also really great. In addition to Dr. Salim, Dr. Salim was fantastic. Also her nurse that seen me prior to Dr. Salim was very thorough, great, very nice, caring, compassionate as well. So I would just say that Dr. Salim's team in general is really, really great.

Great experience

It was a 10 out of 10 visit, starting from when I came in all the way up until when I left. So yeah, I feel like the front desk, the person who works with us, she's always the face of the clinic, and you have an amazing and very welcoming receptionist. She was awesome. So yeah.

I've been a patient at the Fairview Uptown Clinic for years and have consistently had positive experiences. The front desk staff is always welcoming, and the physicians are exceptional. I've been seeing Dr. Salim for the past few years, and I can't say enough good things about her. She truly listens, asks thoughtful and thorough questions, and makes me feel like I'm her only patient. In today's fast-paced world, I deeply appreciate her attentiveness and care.

I really appreciate how Dr Salim takes the time to listen to my concerns and is extremely compassionate. She never makes me feel rushed or judged. It's really hard to talk about health issues as some doctors can be dismissive or condescending, but Dr Salim makes me feel like I have someone in my corner. That's a really big deal and I'm so grateful to her.

From the moment I walked in, the front these receptionist, the nurse assistant, the nurse who administered my vaccine, the lab tech and Dr. Salim, all made me feel heard and cared for. This is the best care I've ever received.
Oct 10, 2024
I was really disappointed to learn that I could raise issues that might be considered to be outside of the annual well care preventive visit and end up being billed $40 co-pays for them. This certainly inhibited my openness about my health concerns. On the other hand I think Dr Salim is terrific and highly recommend her.

The male lab tech who took my blood on Sept. 18 was outstanding. I barely felt the blood draw inserted into my arm. I usually feel blood draws as minor discomfort, with this lab tech is was quick and painless.

All staff were professional, friendly and competent.

Dr Salim is great! She takes the time to listen to my concerns and asked multiple times if all my questions were addressed. She was efficient and explained everything thoroughly.

From start to finish, everyone was wonderful. Typically, going to the doctor is stressful because something is wrong. My visit was great. I am sorry I don't remember the lady's name who helped me checkin, but her friendliness and attitude helped kick everything off on the right foot. Doctor Fardows Salim is not my primary care provider, but I would see her again happily. She was knowledgeable and friendly and helped put me at ease. I have already recommended her to family and friends as someone I trust and would have as my own doctor. I am not positive, but I think my blood remover was named Abby. She was quick and friendly and pretty much painless. Before I knew it my blood was tapped and out and I was on my way. Thank you all.

From the check in to my nurse and Dr all were very caring.
Jul 25, 2024
First of all, absolutely wild that people can rate a doctor like they are an Applebees or something, but I digress. Dr. Salim was professional and genuinely seemed to care. Looking forward to continue working with Dr. Salim as time goes on.

I always find Dr Salims care to be warm, human, practical, but above all she has an excellent knowledge base. The clinic overall is excellent. I do hate the electronic clipboard questionnaires before being seen. It forces answers than do not create an accurate, descriptive or helpful scenario of what is going on with my health. It is a ridiculous waste. It makes me feel like I'm at a self checkout place that will give me the same kind of discount care. Luckily the actual care is phenomenal. Please get rid of the electronic clipboard.

Yeah, the doctor was very helpful and she was great.
