Dr.Zafar was beyond patient with me when we got disconnected and stayed online until I could reconnect and was still online until he finally finished explaining everything, and explained everything in terms that I could understand. Very Very Grateful!! Will definitely recommend him to others!!

Doctor Taqi Zafar explained he was going talk about my health issue then he would listen to our concerns and questions. He explained in detail of my health issues and what will help me to recover, what providers I need and passed notes to them what therapy would help me. He was very compassionate of my life issues I had. THEN, he listen to all our questions and concerns . he never dismissed any of them. I think we thanked him four times leaving. What a great Physician.

The doctor always takes 45 minutes to come to the room after we get in there and provides me no confidence in the fact that the medical records where not reviewed. The patient is mentally challenged and does not always provide me his sister and caregiver much information

Concerning the question about Dr. Zafar knowing my medical history; this was my first visit with Dr. Zafar. I would not expect him to know in great detail about my medical history. He did ask many questions and we talked at some length about my medical history.

The appointment was extremely short. A telemedicine appointment would have been sufficient had we known that it would last less than five minutes with the doctor.

Everyone was extremely helpful and carring, especially when my bottom number on my blood pressure dropped down to 39,but I felt ok Especially the lady that kept checking on me. She even asked if I needed some water and brought it. I wish that I would have gotten her name because she deserves to be bragged on!!!!!

The Doctor had referred me to see another doctor then forgot why he referred. Now I have to live with loosing me eye sight. Do to he couldn't remember. Plus I felt like my care wasn't important to him.

I did not feel like the provider was aware of the mental status of the patient. He is a mentally challenged [60+] year old whom is not aware of how to relate how he feels some times. Myself as his care taker and older sister I do not live in the same house as him I to see that he is taken care of medically and make sure he has the necessities to live and take care of himself.

Dr. Zafar was a little late for our 8 AM appointment, and had not reviewed my file. I understand he must be very busy, but it would have inspired more confidence had he taken a moment to review so that he would know why I was seeing him.
