Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Not good
The doctor was rude and dismissive from the very beginning. When I brought up my mental health issues, she seemed to think I was too young to have them and scoffed at my mention of using a health supplement, as she didn't appear to believe in holistic medicine. Additionally, she suspected that I had an STD, despite my clear statement that I did not. I was then required to undergo a Pap smear test, which made me uncomfortable since I was exposing my body to a disrespectful doctor. I couldn't wait for the appointment to end; the entire interaction left me in tears. I regret not heeding the constructive reviews. I would not recommend her at all.

The most useless doctor ever
Dr Qayyum was my PCP for a couple of years, I had high blood pressure but she refused to prescribe me medication saying "I am too young for this." She told me I should "lose weight" instead, and so for many months I suffered stress from uncontrolled high blood pressure and literally begging her for medicine. When I told her in a follow up visit that I had managed to lose a couple of pounds, she was really snarky about it. I should have found a new doctor sooner, that was my mistake.

Dr. Qayyum
Had a physical with the fabulous Dr.Qayyum yesterday. I wish the office told me that she was only there two days a week and offered me to get my labs done while waiting for my physical. Dr. Qayyum told me this option after my visit. Could have nipoed some health issues in the bud as I had to reschedule and wait several months before I could schedule another physical.
