I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. I had several bad experiences with this doctor. Here is one of them: I went to see her when I was 8 weeks pregnant with my first baby. She told me that I did not need to see any doctors for the first 3 months of pregnancy. I have high blood pressure and I take medication. When I asked if the meds I was taking were dangerous to my baby, she said yes but didn’t believe I was pregnant and did not want to change my meds. She then told me she was going on vacation and would have no replacement. I had to take matter into my own hand so I called the prenatal clinic and they said I should be seen, they took excellent care of me and my unborn baby. The prenatal clinic determined that I had a high risk pregnancy and I was followed there on a regular basis. I never went to see Dr. Farooq again.

I just don't find that Dr. Farooq asks any questions about my baby. Shes only 6 months old and the dr has not once asked how shes eating, sleeping, etc. She always seems too rushed! She measures her length and her head and gives her needles, thats it!She's the doctor, I think she should be asking about the baby to make sure she is meeting milestones~

Compared to my last doctor, Dr. Farooq is a godsend. She listens to me, she lets me talk about more than one thing during each appointment, an in general isn't an idiot. She may be a bit quiet and sometimes intimidating (as most doctors can be), but overall, I find her to be a nice doctor, and I'm glad to be one of her patients. I no longer fear going to the doctor the way I previously did.

I find her to be quiet but very nice, I don't have big health problems but she did take time to help explain and reasure me with an issue I just had. It is true she makes you come back every 3 months for refills of perscriptions, but quite a few dr's are starting to do the same. It's a good chance to make sure there are no sudden changes happening, check blood pressure and so on. The rest of the staff in the office are good to.

I went to her for a pap smear and trust me I wil never go back again! Even if that means I never have another test. She treated me like a slab of meat, not worthy of her time. I found myself wondering if it is because I am an anglo canadian? Her bedside manner is atrocious, she would benefit from a social interaction and communication class

If it were possible to pick your family doctor these days, I would NOT have picked her. I feel that she is only interested in making money and not in her patients. In order to get money from medicare for office calls, she makes you come back for additional appointments when all that is required would be to give a longer lasting perscription (it is not a narcotic just a regular prescription and since I have to take it for the rest of my life does it really make a difference if I get 6 months supply instead of 3!!!

My daughter goes there and I find she's very lazy with medical history. Whenever we go there she tells me to come back on a certain date for something, and then when i go back, she asks why I'm there. When we first went there, she said she had no file of my girl's flu shot and told me to contact my previous doctor. After fighting with the previous Dr., who already told me she sent them and no longer had them, I went back to see this Dr. and she said "Yeah, her files are right here." Really gave me a run for my money I guess.

I actually really like Dr Farooq. I haven't had any of the issues listed in other comments. My interactions with her have been helpful, professional and productive. As for the bedside manner, I have found her to be very nice and reasonable, although neither of us like our time wasted, so I do what she tells me and we're both happy (and I'm healthier).

Will only address ONE issue per visit....sounds like medicare fraud to me! We take time off from work etc when we could have addressed the 3 or 4 issues at one time! We waited 3 yrs to get a doctor

This doctor is terrible! Several people I know, including me found her to be inappropriate with NO bedside manner. I would not feel comfortable sending anyone to her!
