This doctor actually reviewed my test results the same days they were available and sent me messages with commentary. Very unusual in my experience these days, and I appreciate that.

Dr. Farooq was fantastic. She made sure I understood everything and even took time to break certain things down. I felt comfortable with her and I will certainly return.

I liked Dr. Farooq. She explained everything well. She offered a new medicine for my cough that I've never heard of before she offered it to me. It is helping me.
