No I won’t go back again
Verified patient
A lot of Appointments open for 9:00am and 9:30 am which you are able to book but then the provider says they don’t come in at that time even though it has all of these appointment times listed . And the first time I went to him I booked and appointment and when I got there he was there but told me I would have to reschedule .
Verified patient
I arrived early. The nurse took me back at the appointment time. I then waited 30 for the doctor. There was no other patient present. The doctor focused on whether or not I had diabetes or a heart condition and not why I was there, which was to get relief from my current bad seasonal allergies. I also asked for referrals for allergist, dermatologist, and gynecologist along with mammogram and colonoscopy. When asked for a steroid shot, the doctor offered a round of 5 days worth of steroid pills which will delay my recovery. I have no voice, a headache 4/10, tiredness, a cough, and a runny nose. The doctor was more interested in running tests on my heart than treating my current ailments.

He has been my PCP for about 4 years now, and I would not change at all. He and his staff are very knowledgeable and he is very one on. I was admitted into the hospital and he came at 10pm to check on me!

Very pleased with Dr. Alam. He seemed to have a general concern for my issue and got me scheduled in right away. I will see him in the future as he was very productive.
Verified patient
Dr. Alam is a very good doctor. He listens to your concerns and is very flexible with appointments. Sometimes I have an issue with making it to his office due to the time I leave work and he has offered to stay later to see me. Most doctors would never even consider doing this. 100% of the time I get seen the same day I call for an appointment.
Verified patient
Dr. Alam was very impersonal. Kinda rude and left me in the room for 15 minutes without letting me know what he was doing. When I finally went out to look for him I seen him in his office. He said he was having computer issues. I will not be back
