John Safa Khoury

Engaged, personable, showing interest in my situation and recalling some previous discussions.

Efficient and prepared.

Dr. Khoury has been my Neurologist for many years. He listens to my issues and concerns and makes recommendations on changing my medications to provide relief. After many tries with various medications, I have been taking injections for migraines. This have reduced my migraines to no more than 2 per year vs 15-30 per month. Now we are trying to wean off the the injections. I’ve gone from 3 months to 4 months apart and hope it continues to the point I can stop taking altogether.

I did not feel cared for as a patient of Dr. John Khoury. He did not spend much time with me in our appointments and his office was hard to get in contact with when I required prescription refills. I was out of medicine for a week before I got a refill. This happened twice! I have since found a new doctor.

Dr Khoury was very professional, explained things in a way I could understand, listened to my questions and was not judgemental at all. He made me feel glad I went for the appointment and gave me hope

Seems a little strange but I guess he is capable.

You're not going to get someone to hold your hand and sympathize with you if that's what you're looking for in a doctor. And I know that sounds like a strong statement to make, but I work in the health care field myself and I appreciate Dr. Khoury's approach with managing his patients and their diagnoses. He's straightforward and looks to his patients to be the same; there's no tiptoeing around with him and although his bedside manner isn't as courteous and sugar-coated, I respect how real he is

I have chronic headaches for years, and finally decided to do something about it. This was not the original doctor I even wanted to see but was pushed into this apt, and now I see why! I felt like the whole visit was very rushed(mind you this was my first apt),wasn't truly listening, and like he was laughing at me!! Spoke very unprofessionally. At one point he even said, oh that usually only happens in fat people and clearly your not. WOW I'm a skinny person but I was even offended. NO TACT

Dr. Khoury was arrogant,used curse words when talking with me,dismissed every other doctor’s expertise and advice as WRONG,and made me feel so unsettled and more fearful of my condition and symptoms than before I saw him.He made judgmental comments about depression and anxiety.He asked why I bothered going to him if I have a neurologist in the city.I had hoped to find one closer to home and got the short end of the stick when the office scheduled me with him.I will never go to him again!

After using CPAP for the first time I had a very scary experience. Slept fine for 5 hours & then felt intense pressure in my chest pushing out horizontally which turned into pain. Woke me up. Called office & left many messages over 3 weeks. No call back. Wasn't going to use CPAP until I spoke w/doctor. After my insurance company left message for doctor to call me, he called & acted like he just got the message. When I told him what happened he said, "Oh yeah, that happens, no big deal."

Found him to be very rude. He told me that I still suffer from "anxiety or depression, whatever you want to call it" when I haven't been depressed or anxious in YEARS. He used that exact line multiple times during my visit. He belittled me several times and really didn't seem to think the fact that I have horrible insomnia, and am having trouble functioning because of it, was an issue. Do not recommend.

My husband was in the emergency room due to pain from Neuro Lyme. Dr Khoury came in to check him and was very very rough, banging his ankles with the metal instrument, poking hard, with a needle. My husband had been in pain for over two weeks at that time and Dr Khoury was adding to that. He was also rude and ignorant as other have said. We mentioned going to a chiropractor and his comment was, "Why do you go? Is it fun?" He told us, he does not like Chiropractors. He is one arrogant doctor.

Dr Khoury is great. His staff is great. Getting an appointment with him is horrible. Abington has a phone system so bad it puts Verizon to shame. Each number directs you to another number, where you may or may not be able to leave a message, or be supplied with a fresh new number, where eventually, you'll end up getting the 1st number you dialed. If the staff gets the message, they'll call you. You're better off just walking in, like it's 1920. Then, once you get them, it's great.

I'm glad I ignored the couple of negative reviews left for Dr Khoury on this site. He was great! I know about crappy drs that don't listen, rush you along or have the God complex, Dr Khoury IS NOT one of them. He listened, showed compassion in regards to my many medical issues and explained his recommendations in a way a layperson could understand. He even joked around a bit to put me at ease. Him and his staff were wonderful.

AMH sleep center is the worst place to go. For a condition that will kill me it takes 3 months to get an app't to see a dr. Then I can guarantee you they will cancell it the week before and you have to wait another 3 months, or the best was I went to my app't and the doctor decided to go on vacation that week. The girl at the front desk tried to tell me she called me lots of times and left a message for the past 3 weeks. My phone showed NO calls let alone messages from AMH.

Dr. Khoury was cynical and rude and not particularly helpful. He didn't really take the time to get thorough details about my insomnia, and basically discounted what I had to say.

I was concerned about some symptoms. Dr. Khoury spent time with me, helped me understand what was going on, really listened to what was happening. I'm thankful that doctors like this still exist in the world. He's very laid back, but you can tell he's also very smart. He started a medication that didn't work right away, and when I called, he called right back.

John was empathetic, provided lucid explanations to medical inquiries and was more than pleasant to discuss medical issues, A very good experience.

Arrogant, illogical doctor. Big on sleep drugs. He never looked at my data beyond the summary from the sleep center. Not to mention that the sleep center is so badly run and designed that sleeping is difficult and your sleep will be unlike nights at home, so the data will be inaccurate. And the sleep study cost thousands of dollars. I've been to other sleep doctors and centers that were mediocre. This one was truly awful.

When I mentioned that I have sleep paralysis and hypnagogia he threw his hands up in the air and said, whoa, whoa, don't throw out medical terms just because you googled them! Actually I know quite a bit about those terms and it was insulting to my intelligence. Two words best describe Dr. Khoury: God Complex. He is a sleep specialist and should be someone I can talk about those things with, and I could if he were professional but unfortunately he is not. Didn't care about my health at all.
