Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2025
I had an extremely disappointing visit with Dr. Zafar. My appointment started over an hour late, which was frustrating in itself. When she finally saw me, she asked why I was there. I explained that I had a colonoscopy last year but was still experiencing the same symptoms and wanted to get tested for food allergies. She laughed and said, “You know this is a GI specialist, right? We don’t test for food.” I told her my primary care doctor recommended that I start here again, but she dismissed me, saying she couldn’t help—without offering any guidance on where I should go instead. I expressed my frustration, mentioning that I wished I had known this before waiting over an hour to see her. Her response? “I wish I had known too because there are actually sick patients I could have attended to.” I was absolutely stunned. She had no idea how sick I was, yet she made me feel like I was wasting her time. She then asked if I had brought my previous colonoscopy records. I assumed they would be in the system, but she laughed again and condescendingly said, “You think all hospital networks and doctor’s offices are connected?” I genuinely did, and she proceeded to lecture me about always carrying my medical records to specialists. This experience left me feeling dismissed, unheard, and disrespected. A doctor should never make a patient feel like a burden, especially when they are actively seeking help for ongoing health concerns.

Dr. Zafar is extremely unprofessional and incompetent. Her office is extremely unorganized and her staff is just as incompetent as her. You can submit payment to them and they will lose record of your payment made and will cancel your appointment as a result. She is always late to appointments and her staff is extremely unfriendly and have no common sense on basic questions. I would stay away from her and any of her staff at all costs. You will lose your money and will not get anywhere with your treatment as she is very incompetent at her work
