She's nice but she is more of a holistic type of healer/ internist... not exactly what I required.

I was recently in an accident and found Dr. Rafique was gentle attentive and very comprehensive in my examination. I felt that she was very thourough and caring. I would recomend her to anyone especially if you avoid going to the Dr. because of the impersonal attitudes of some professionals in this field; she is the complete opposite!!!
September 16, 2011Vanessa D.Verified patient
