It's been very difficult, not having a Parkinson's doctor to call my own. Dr. Khemanis office was nice enough to squeeze me in at the end of his day because I'm in such terrible pain 100% of the time. He is an angel for seeing me. My brother-in-law also has Parkinson's and he squeezed him into his schedule too. He hadn't been to Swedish for a year and a half hopeful that someone could get hired soon now we're both set. Thanks to Dr. Pravin Khemani

Providence Patient
As usual, my experience was outstanding!
Providence Patient
Dr. Pravin Khemani and I have developed a great doctor patient relationship. He treats me more like a friend than a patient, but with extremely professional behavior. He truly understands me now and I see he sees how passionate I am about Dystonia awareness and people getting the best care they can with Dystonia. Dr. Pravin is extremely brilliant, serious and kind. He can even be funny. My previous care was mediocre compared to the care I get with Dr. Pravin. I will be forever grateful to him for helping me. My neck is staying straighter way longer now and I don't have severe pain as soon as I use to before needing Xeomin injections. I can't tell friends and family enough how great doctor Pravin is. Thank you for everything Dr. Pravin Khemani. Also, thank you for deciding to do a pilot study on Dystonia. I am so excited about being part of it.

Providence Patient
Very knowledgeable offering alternatives and sources
Providence Patient
This was my first visit to Swedish. My experience was excellent. I felt valued as a patient and confident about my diagnosis and program.
Providence Patient
Greatly appreciate Dr. Khemani's outstanding expertise and communication style.
Providence Patient
I put Dr Khamani's care and attention to my specific circumstances at the very top of my neurological care and I've seen multitudes of neurologists in the past 40 years. He asked me how my tremor affects my ADLs and which debility is the most consequential to my life. NOBODY has asked me that before. He then drew up a chart with potential treatments across the top and my specific symptoms on the side with known percentages of treatment for each modality. Again, NOBODY has ever done this for me and it is extremely useful in helping me decide on potential treatment options. I certainly hope Swedish treats him well as most of my movement disorder neurologists here don't seem to stick around very long. Can't say enough positive things about Dr Khamani's knowledgeable and respectful care!
Providence Patient
I have only had good experiences with Dr. Khemani. He is a great listener and communicates diagnoses and treatment options very clearly. I am very fortunate to have him as my doctor.
Providence Patient

P.sReception has some training issues...
Providence Patient
Dr. Khemani showed great enthusiasm during my visit, and showed genuine concern ways to resolve my issue(s).
Providence Patient
My provider was very caring, positive and very helpful to me. Although, it took forever to get into see him!! Waiting over a month or two is unacceptable!
Providence Patient
Every time I arrive for my appointment, which is scheduled every three months, I am welcomed warmly at the check-in desk, and when I meet my healthcare provider, it feels like a reunion with family. I sense his genuine concern as he listens attentively to my concerns, providing clear explanations to my questions and guiding me through each step of the procedure. In conclusion, I am thoroughly satisfied with the exceptional care and attention he provides.
