Sharmin Basher MD, MS

I really like Dr Basher and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing heart health.

Dr. Basher listens carefully and appears to be very concerned about my health.

She was very attentive to my needs.

Dr. Basher was very competent. But she was friendly and thoughtful too. She is the kind of doctor that doesn't make you feel bad about the health I have...she talked about my other doctors and really gave a picture of coordinated care and teamwork. She listened to me and helped me understand. She gave me a feeling that I am part of the team. That's important! Her instructions were clear and she double checked my understanding. Professional and great customer care and service.

Good experience

I feel lucky to have found a physician that is so amazing. The time spent, the information provided and her knowledge of my conditions far exceeds expectations.

Dr Bashir is a great Dr. She is patient and shows concerns for my care.

Dr. Basher explains everything in a calm, knowledgeable manner. And a good thing that I noticed this time is that she repeated and re-summarized things, which means that it all got into my (now aging) head twice, that I had another opportunity for questions, and that, when I read the summary notes, I could say to myself, yes, I get that. Dr, Basher is a wonderful doctor.

I was very disappointed in Dr Basher on several levels she entered telling me her name went directly to the computer and asked why I was there today I told her my Vanderbilt pulmonologist was concerned that the Propranolol I was taking for pvc's was listening the effect of my asthma medicine he told me to stop it and see a cardiologist to have it replaced Dr Basher said the pulmonologist was wrong she's saw nothing in my medicines that would be a problem I also mentioned that I become a little winded when doing an activity like vacuuming or putting away groceries she said that was not a heart problem and I needed to go back to the pulmonologist she said she ordered a stress test and a two-day Holter monitor I asked her when I would come back she said if the test didn't show anything I didn't need to come back I told her that my previous cardiologist was Dr Eli Haddad who did work at Vandy but had moved to St Thomas had me come back once a year you don't need to do that she said I was so disappointed that she treated what I said about my pulmonologist being wrong I think a better way would have been for her to say she would contact him and discuss it I absolutely hate when I get caught between two Physicians I will not go back to see Dr basher I will choose a different doctor in Vandy Cardiology.
