He was amazing! I have been in pain for so long that I'm starting to fall into a state of depression and he was extremely compassionate on top of everything else! The nurses were great, too!

Dr. Anwar is very thorough. I appreciate the time he takes and the results I receive. I have been to other pain management clinics and this has been the only doctor to significantly reduce my pain.

Verified patient
Well, first of all they said I didn't have an appointment listed, when I booked with Zoc Doc. Then I had to fill out all the forms again after I did it with Zoc Doc. Why would you have us fill out the forms online & then have to do it all over again at the office. I had to wait almost 2 hours to see him. He seemed very nice & said he has many options to offer me for my pain. I have to get an MRI first. They don't seem to be very organized at the office.

Dr Anwar listened to everything I had to say and followed up with questions to make sure everything was clear. He was great. The one thing I love about him is that he's conservative. Most pain docs are pill pushers, NOT dr Anwar! He set me up for an injection and told me that he will do everything in his power to make sure that my pain is relieved! I highly recommend him. How many doctors can you say that about... Especially after just the FIRST visit!?!? He's great, and I look forward to the relationship we are going to have. If you're in pain and out of options, go talk to Dr Anwar! Wonderful, wonderful Doctor!!!!
