If i could give 0 it would be too high. Refusing to treat me because of WCB claim, gloveless paps, breast exam done sitting in a chair with clothes on. Lunch sitting on desk while she fixes pap slide on filthy desk covered in other peoples personal medical papers....to name only a few things. Shes a menace, an embarrassment to Nova Scotia and would not be allowed to practice anywhere else in Canada.

I am a health care professional practicing out of the HRM and have had countless NEGATIVE interactions with Dr. Malik. She is arrogant, incompetent and rude. We all make mistakes, but she is unable to (1) identify her mistakes (2) admit that she's wrong. I know it's difficult to find a physician in Nova Scotia, but please try to avoid seeing her if you have another option. She is not a nice person.

I have been seeing Dr Malik for about five years, after having to search desperately for a new one, after my previous doctor lost his medical license due to malpractice & doing some not so legal things. He was the worst doctor I had ever had. When I first had my consultation with Dr Malik , I immediately felt at ease, for the first time ever. I knew from that moment that she would take great care of me and my daughter. She enjoys seeing the both of us and treats us with much respect. She is extremely professional and definitely knows what she is doing. Dr Malik takes the time to listen and will give up her free time to see me. I have never met anyone in the waiting room who dislikes her or ever complains about the sometimes wait time for their appointments. She takes her time to really listen and give her opinion. She is always on top of my medical records and let's me know when certain yearly checkups are coming up. My daughter and I both adore her. The reception is also very sweet to both of us. Sometimes, she is extremely busy, other times, she is able to socialize. I have never seen either of her offices, previous and current, be dirty. I have never seen anything gross in her office, it is always clean. I am very confident about her equipment being sterile and clean. I have never met a doctor like her before and it's always a pleasure to see her. And vice versa when she sees me, especially my daughter, she lights up. Most teenagers wouldn't open up, but my daughter has no problem. She makes you feel very comfortable and not a waste of time.
I've read most of the comments below and cannot believe that people have the audacity to write such things about a caring, beautiful doctor. You are just upset because you didn't take the time to explain what your issues were. If you don't want your significant other to hear about your medical history, don't have them in the room. If you want respect and to be treated as a person, then dish out the same, you may be surprised what you receive in return. One bad experience, doesn't make for a terrible doctor. I have had my share of horrific doctors, Dr Malik doesn't come close to being horrible. Maybe you are just an angry person who needs to complain about everything little thing. Get over it. Dr Malik is exceptional and wonderful and always goes over and beyond for her patients!!!!!!WE LOVE HER!!!!!!

I complained of severe pain for 5 years and she refused to refer me to a gyno as "they are too quick to cut into you" . For FIVE YEARS I had severe pain, cried many tears, and missed days of work most months. I have finally be referred after seeing another doctor once! and received an actual diagnosis! Oh but it doesn't end there. I requested copies of 3 months worth of blood work from her office which they refused to send to anyone in any matter unless I drove an hour to the office to pick the records up. I get there, and the office has moved to a new location, which they did not tell me even after explained I was coming from a distance. When I asked the receptionist how long ago they moved, it was less than a month prior, but apparently they don't bother telling anyone because "they are really busy".... AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I used to like Dr. Malik, she delivered all 3 of my kids BUT in the last 7 years its has gone WAY downhill. Disgustingly dirty and dreary. I've stopped getting any exams and rude is an understatement. I walked in and she looked at me and said point blank for a girl your age and height you are overweight and need to lose t least 10lbs! I am 38,5'3 and about 150lbs max and feel pretty good about myself...do i need to change some things of course but it was the way she said it, like she was disgusted by me !

I really like Dr Malik. She follows our little guy and one time when he had weezing in his lungs, she had him come in every 2nd day just to listen. We never had to wait long and the extra care with our infant was appreciated. She is obviously very experienced so I’m sure she has little patience if you want to ask 100 questions or hear all studies regarding vaccines.
We wouldn’t consider bringing our guy to anyone else
