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.

Seemed to not listen to a word that I had to say. Had her as my psychiatrist at the AMITA inpatient facility and she was keeping me without telling me any valid reason. I even talked to multiple of the nurses in the facility and they said that wasn’t the first time they’ve heard someone say Raza doesn’t listen. Made my experience there exponentially worse, especially when the length of my stay is dependent solely on her. Talked to her about self image issues and she immediately asked me if I thought I was fat, which doesn’t seem like a very appropriate response question, considering I never mentioned feeling that way. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Drug pushing. Doesn’t listened. Already has her mind made up before you get there. For the long term safety of yourself and your kids. Stay away!

She is not personable. Spends less than 10 min with you and doesn't seem to care at all. Just "How are you going?" and "ok see you in 3 months." I bring up concerns and she just dismisses them.

Doctor is very impersonal, mumbles and doesn't listen. We feel like an annoyance to her. She asks "how you are doing" then will type very slowly the duration of the appointment while we sit in silence. My daughter tells her the medicine is not working and Dr. Raza says "well it should work" and will continue to prescribe the same medicine. Can't believe other doctors recommend her.

She doesn't listen to you. When you tell her that her patient is dizzy and disoriented after the drugs that she prescribes, she says "It is impossible". During appointment she NEVER makes and eye contact. She shows absolutely NO interest in her patient or patients family. AVOID HER LIKE A PLAGUE

Terrible listener. Seems not to care. Left my daughter more anxious then when she came in. Kept her on same medication that is not working, which was the reason for the visit. Worst experience with a doctor I've ever experienced.

Very cold perso. The whole reason I went to her was to explain that I have very bad anxiety. She gave me 1 medication that when I read up on it does nothing for anxiety at all it's only for depression and then when she found out i was on Norco and methadone she gave me a dirty look not very perfesional at all. Ansked me nothing about my anxiety

Her shoes were off the whole time! She typed with one hand slowly into her computer, never making eye contact with me. She was “shocked” I’ve been on these medications while pregnant. I spoke with the office manager who was professional and very competent, unlike Dr. Raza. How this Dr sees vulnerable patients, I will never know.

The first time I walked into her office, Dr. Raza wasn't wearing shoes. They did not return to her feet for the duration of the visit. They had just started using a new computer program and she was asking ME questions about it. I have an eating disorder and she put me on a drug known for intense food cravings. I instructed her of the new medication I'd like to try...not the other way around (my PSYCHOLOGIST recommended it). She spent an entire office visit trying to give me career advice.

I tried working with this doctor for 10 months and am now looking for a new physiatrist for a variety of reasons. One of which, I read about some side effects of a medication she prescribed from the makers website and instead of looking into it she immediately discredited it. My counselor tried calling her 3 times - she never returned the calls. I needed disability paperwork to be filled out for my employer; she wouldn't do it. She told me to fill it out and she'd sign it...

A total quack. Doesn't listen, is judgmental, and doesn't like it when she's taking care of educated individuals. Feels threatened easily when the patient is advocating on their behalf. Wouldn't return my husband's phone calls about my care to address his concerns. Steer clear of this lady.

Nice enough but never really gives any good useful advice to my child or us as parents. Merely, she is just a person who we HAVE to see to get the prescriptions my daughter needs.

Dr. Mumtaz Raza is a complete quack and has absolutely no patient skills. She will write things like "seems aggressive" or "heightened anxiety" in the report that you don't even say happen so you stay there longer!! This hospital is a money making machine and she does not care about the patients at all! I saw that no one in there was actually receiving any treatment and it was just a psych hold facility. Once the patients insurance ran out they got them out the door within the hour!

Not exactly one of the premier psychiatrists around. She doesn't really listen, offer advice, work with you on medication or towards solving your problems. It's just silence while she writes your prescriptions every few months. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone that I like or whom I'd like to get help.

Doesn't respond or call back when there's a problem. It took over a week to refill a prescription. I lost my placement in school without the medication. Couldn't get an office visit for one month.
