I had been going through a very hard time with a Crohn’s flare up, painful sores on my legs that became infected for months. Dr. Fahima was the only one between my gastroenterologist, dermatologist and primary that was able to diagnose me properly and get me on the road to recovery. She’s extremely patient and personable and deeply cares about her patients. I could not recommend her more highly.

What a great doctor. Spent over 1 hour with me and ordered a bunch of bloodwork and X-rays and found out I have Psoriatic Arthritis. She was kind and spoke in regular understandable language. Feeling so much better on my new medication. She was great and did call me back every time I called even for simple questions. Sending all my girlfriends from our book club to see her and Janet loved her as well. You just know she is a caring smart doctor after the first visit. So glad we got her.

I saw Dr. Fatima after experiencing significant pain in most of my joints. She diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. She didn’t seem to take my pain, or dysfunction as a result of it, seriously. She prescribed one medication that I had to stop taking due to side effects. When I explained that I couldn’t carry out basic daily living tasks like brushing my teeth & getting dressed without significant pain & expressed concern about how this will effect my ability to work etc she just said give it time. She said to go for physical therapy & psychotherapy & give it time. I don’t feel that this was an adequate way to treat my condition. I really feel that she didn’t provide proper treatment & has not followed up in my condition after a month of not seeing her. I’m seeing another doctor for treatment now.

Dr Fahima is very patient and is very through with trying to identify cause for my medical issues. She doesn't rush you and listens very thoroughly & patiently when I'm explaining my symptoms. She is very specific in her reasoning of why she is requesting test so she can give you the best accurate care. Dr Fahima’s follow ups are… Excellent!
She also goes over test results with Empathy and Compassion!
