Dr. Astaire K Selassie

Dr. Selassie's advice after her analysis of my debilitating lower back pain was the best I received after visiting two surgeons and other pain management professionals. I'm continually grateful for her advice that that allowed me to stop steroid and other painkillers and resume normal activities. In short, I believe medicine is not an exact science but requires the analysis, experience and smart sense that Dr. Selassie brings to her work.

Dr Selassie is a gift to all of us in pain. She is a kind, accomplished, skillful physician that makes every effort to help you. I am thankful to know her.

Dr. Selassie is a true healer. I have relied on her pain management expertise for over a decade and she has delivered glowingly every time. When I could barely walk due to my excruciating pain, her calm and reassuring manner made the epidural process so very bearable. After the procedure, which made me totally ambulatory. Dr. Selassie followed up twice via telephone over the next two days. I could not speak more highly of her competence and bedside manner.

8 years and 12 doctors and Dr. Selassie finally gave me a diagnosis! She's a wonderful person who listens and actually cares about you and your pain. She has a conservative approach, no rushing you in to surgery, and she'll do as many or as few procedures as you want. She also has a overnight service and will call you back at 3am if you're having an emergency. She's pricey, $245 for 15min visit, but she doesn't act like you're a drug-seeker and that's priceless.

I found her to be receptive and most responsive to pain related ailments and finding a remedy.

I totally agree with Mark. Carla Silber, if you only known her for a short period of time, please don't make it seem like Mr. Mark doesn't know what he's talking about and/or have experience. Frankly, I've experienced the same thing from Selassie. This was back in 2006-2008. She treated the medical assistants like they were nothing and also beneath her as well as her employees. I did hear her speak of her husband Robert Johnson as well when she was in the examination room with me...not that I was trying to listen but apparently HE was caught cheating and HE wanted a divorce and she was pleading with him in the EXAM room not to leave her. VERY Unprofessional. She has no respect for patients and her employees. Between the years 2006-2008...she had gotten rid of alotttt of medical assistants for no reason and this information came from the spanish security guard that works on the 1st floor and also came from her own receptionist, her name was Senaith, which of course is no longer there (I'll let you figure out what happen to her). So trust me Carla...Mark does know what hes talking about and I MYSELF can vouch. Really sad that this Doctor is so disrespectful and unprofessional. Just because you have a few visits and all goes well doesnt mean she has not done the above. I totally agree with Mark.

This doctor has a bad attitude and she treats her employees like CRAP!! She has different employees constantly, very unstable when it comes to keeping a good worker. The most professional and courteous employee I've seen work there was a Medical Assistant, that worked there in 2007. All of a sudden, she was fired because she inquired about her health & dental benefits. Anyhow, this doctor is ALWAYS LATE. Shes stuck up and looks at you as if you're beneath her. Shes very unprofessional, during your examination, she will talk to you about her husband Robert Johnson..."The Lawyer"...very unprofessional. She will also speak of other patients' that's in the other exam rooms during your examination. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS DOCTOR.

She was only late once in the six times I've seen her.. She has had the same employees since I've been seeing her- about six months. I never heard of her husband and didn't. Know, until I asked, whether Selassie was her original name.. I've never experienced her being "high-handed" as the gentleman complained of. My visits to her have resulted In reduction of pain in my lumbar region from lumbar stenosis. I have found her to be respectful, engaging and willing to take time to listen. If anything ,she seems very patient with her employees who seem to run to her with questions all the time.. I think the above evaluation is quite unfair and malicious.
