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.

One of the best!
I have been a patient of Dr. Farooqui’s for over 20 years. He is always extremely thorough and kind. He leaves no stone unturned and always gets to the root of your problem; I trust him explicitly.

My 85 year old mother has been seeing Dr. Farooqui for about 25 years. When he first saw her, it was because her previous doctor was out of town and we needed another to get to bottom of why she wasn't feeling well. On her first visit, he quickly recognized that she was in congestive heart failure (which the previous doctor didn't; only gave her cough syrup!) and pretty much saved her life by getting her right into the hospital and with medical treatment that she needed. He saved her life again a decade later, and when she was at the hospital he came at all hours of day & night to check in and see how she was, always diagnosing. Over the years she has seen a lot of specialists under his recommendations and they have always been top-of-their-field. Now that she has moved in with me, we drive an hour to visit his office and it's worth the trip. Yes, you'll wait for a bit before heading back to the exam room, but that is because he truly listens and takes his time with patients. Worth it.

Takes time to listen to patients – Jul 24, 2021

Only concerned with maximizing insurance billing. Orders tests which are not needed. Unprofessional. Avoid him

Dr. Farooqui was not only rude on several different occasions, he also lost my immunization records! Not only is he condescending, but the office is not organized. I usually had to wait 30 minutes or more after my appointment time to be taken to a room, then wait even longer for him to finally come in. In the past, he made fun of my appearance, and told me to shave my armpits more often, that I wasn't "feminine" enough. It was so embarrassing and uncomfortable.

Dr. Farooqui is a wonderful doctor! I had a condition that left me feeling half dead; no appetite, virtually no energy and a constant low grade fever. He was like a tenacious detective trying to solve this mystery. He called in specialists to advise him and went to great lengths to solve my problem. He did and now, several years later, I'm healthy, active and well. Thank you Dr. Farooqui!
