Nightmare. The office is staffed with self-important liars who try to fakenews an escape when they are cornered. " His appointment was only 5 minutes ago" "No that was not the scheduled time for my husband's appointment, it was almost an hour ago." "Well, we only say that so you can do paperwork." "He's a returning patient. There is no paperwork." "Well, that is why we say that." I hope no-one in that office has already reproduced. Unfortunately i saw the glittercrusted frames of children's class pictures. Too late for man-kind: gene pool -F

Horrible doctor has no communication with the staff expressed my concerns to the dr about leaving the office manager three different voicemails three days in a row and finally getting a call back to still the same I don’t know answer.

I have been seeing Dr. Dixit for many years now. His knowledge is exceptional and he knows what he is talking about! He was the first doctor to be able to diagnose my condition after a decade of symptoms and finally provide some relief. The office staff is kind and caring while Dr. Dixit truly cares about his patients and their wellbeing.

Dr Dixit has no time for his patients. He is very unprofessional. Once he diagnosed a family he didn't even tell the patient what is wrong with him he told a relative that showed up with him. Also he didn't explain the diagnosis he just said to look it up online. What kind of doctor are you. This is not a zoo to treat human beings like this. I would never refer anyone to him.

My partner had a stroke and was hospitalized for 5 days. Discharge instructions were to see his neurologist within DAYS. My partner is an established patient here and was told soonest appt. was 4 weeks out! Even after I explained the urgency, the receptionist would not budge. In this town, it's the staff that destroys a Dr's reputation. They are, for the most part, incompetent and I wager than the Dr's have no idea the abysmal service their staff gives patients.

There were only two staff/docs here that were actually kind. Dixit himself needs a lesson in better bedside manner when dealing with his patients, especially those of us with life long illnesses. He rarely smiled and gave short answers to important questions asked. When he did a muscle ultrasound test on me, he came in, took out this long thin needle, and stuck it in various places in my arms, having me flex each time, then got up and left me bleeding. The only reason I didn't lose it, was the nurse had already prepped me and told me what they needed to do. She was the one to give me alcohol swabs to clean the pierced parts of my skin. The front desk is slow to recognize when you need something before setting up your appointments. They had me make an appointment for a particular day, so I did; but about 1 day before that appointment, i got a call from them saying they have to cancel it because I need to got back to my pc doc for another referral. Why didnt they know that before hand? I had already taken that day off work, so it was in our system. So I had the inconvenient task of going into our absence system to cancel my absence, thereby taking away the job of my substitute, and seeing our front office clerk to have her search out my absence and cancel from their end. They're also impatient, not liking when I had to turn my payment card on before I could use it to pay the copay. I don't know if they're like this because that's just their personalities, or if they're burned out dealing with people with brain issues, but I know if they want that office to survive, they better get it together and improve themselves. I see a different neurologist now, and she's the total opposite of Dixit.

This Dr. Is fantastic. He's kind and thorough. His office can be extremely busy however he is worth the wait. He's busy because he and his affiliates are highly sought after and referred because of their expertise. Just because you leave with more questions than answers at times DOES NOT mean you have recieved awful or poor care. Maybe just maybe your ailment isn't neurological in nature and you may need to see a different specialist. You can rest assured that seeing this doctor will help narrow down your search for an accurate diagnosis. I am a patient here and so long as my condition negates it I will always see Dr Dixit of Neurology Center of Las Vegas.

Terrible office staff. Every single time I call, I immediately get placed on hold. In a single day, I called 3 times, each time being placed on hold and no one ever came back on the line to help me. I simply wanted to be sure my appointment was still on for the following day, because they don’t even call to verify that simple detail. Today I called (placed on hold immediately) to find out if there were any nerve testing cancellations, when the girl came back on the phone and I asked, she, without hesitation, responded with a hard “NO”. At least pretend to check and don’t be so rude.When I had my appointment the other day, there were SO many people “working” there, that why I am placed on hold every single time, it simply baffling to me. I can only hope my nerve testing goes better than my experiences so far.

The office staff is disorganized, unprofessional, and does not follow through to complete important tasks such as giving the patient prescriptions and/or necessary work documentation when promised. When you call back to follow-up, you will be left on hold forever and told to go to the emergency room if you don't like it. It is a terrible shame because the doctors seem to truly know what they are doing.

These people are terrible. I have to wait on hold upwards of 10 minutes just to speak with someone, and then nothing. Time to request new prescription and nothing. Pharmacy never gets anything. Call back the next day, same song and dance. It's now been a week of calls, each with at LEAST 10-15 minute holds as people check with whoever it is they're checking with and still nothing. Now I'm waiting for a manager to call me back. Yeah right. There is no way that this place cares for its patients one bit. A simple prescription refill is a nightmare. Never in my life have I been treated this way, and this is not the first time I've had issues with this office. I'm done. The care I get is rushed, uninformed, and lacks any personal touch whatsoever. My GP can do anything these people can do but much better. By the way, I've only seen Dr. Dixit one time in the years that I've been coming here. ONCE. I'm not even sure the dude is even at this office anymore. If they make this right I'll update this review, but until then, beware. This office is a freaking nightmare.
