I went there with the issue of persistent and chronic bad breath. He examined me, and told me it isn't my tonsils which is what I thought was the cause, but it is a possibility that I have diabetes, or issues with my kidneys or thyroid or something else. I go back next week, and I must say he is a great doctor.

I've been seeing Dr. Islam for about a year or a little bit more now. He is a great Dr. who is easy to talk to, very flexible, and there is little to no wait time in his office.

This Doctor is missing a screw somewhere after seeing him as a PCP I have to keep calling about my medications which he claims to have called in to the Pharmacy and if he forgets then he's telling you to come see him in the office after seeing him 2 days earlier. He's ridiculous.
January 25, 2017Florence H.Verified patient
Do not go to Mahbubul Islam, MD!! He is not interested in helping you and is only worried about him self! He has awful manners, him and his wife who is his secretary! No sense of hospitality or common manners.

I think he's a Great Doctor. Very caring and intelligent I felt better just talking to him. He discussed medications and treatments with me. I gave him my opinions told him of past experiences with certain meds. He considered my feelings about them. He let me know that there are other options. He's just an An Awesome Doctor he cares about your long term health. He's not stubborn nor set in his ways like most doctors. I told my adult children to make Dr. Islam their primary care doctor.
November 3, 2014Sharon M.Verified patient
Dr. Islam was OK. I didn't like the manner of his receptionist, she was not that friendly. The office was hard to find at first, it's on the lower level of a home. Dr. Islam himself was fine, I went because of allergies. He listended to me and did an exam, then prescribed me medicines. I went back a month later because my allergies were still acting up. He let me know it's normal during allergy season and prescribed me one additional medicine. I chose this doctor because of the close proximity to my morning commute. I would recommend this doctor if you are in the neighborhood.
October 29, 2014Kalisha E.Verified patient
Dr. Islam was very professional. He seemed very experienced because of the way he diagnosed. He knew exactly what to do and was very affordable. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
