I loved him. He took me fast, but he also spent time with me asking questions to gather my history which is inportant. He is full of knowledge, very attentive and i can tell he is passionate about what he does. He even mentioned a holistic approach as an option and gave me some suggestions to look into, which is nice to have. Im looking forward to my next visit.

Dr Tawfik is very attentive and really listens. He's not a pill pusher like most Drs so when he does prescribe something you feel confident that he's got your best interest at heart and not pushing big pharma's agenda. Highly recommend!

I have been a patient for over 8 years. I saw numerous psychiatrists on Staten Island before I found Dr. Tawfik. He is the best psychiatrist I have ever seen in my life by far.

My visit was even more than I expected. The Dr, Dr. Tawfik was understanding and patient. His demeanor is more than professional. There is something about his interaction that is calming, unintrusive yet extremely effective. His understanding and to put it mildy - his bedside manner is more than exceptional.
