Verified patient
The Dr was fast and efficient. He was attentive to my needs and made it it extremely easy to get my medications
Verified patient
After waiting in the office for 30 minutes, was informed doctor was "stuck in traffic" had to reschedule to a telehealth visit 2 days later. Dr. Briefly took some information from me and recommended a prescription which he has not been able to send to the pharmacy after days. Ultimately accomplishing nothing but wasted time and gas.

Verified patient
Dr. Siddiqui was very helpful, professional, empathetic, and had a practical and straightforward approach. It would definitely recommend him.
Verified patient
He seemed like he would be a great therapist, he is only taking new patients for medical management. He is not taking patients for therapy. This was not specified on zoc doc. I want to try talk therapy first before going on meds.
