    Dr Farooql is the best physician I have ever met. She shows she cares about her patient and explain my condition clearly. UCSF is so lucky to have her and so do I.

    I love Dr. Farooqi - she's sharp, experienced and takes time to answer questions and explain her rationale. It's rare to find a doctor who cares so much about the well being of her patients. I've even been willing to wait for months to get an appointment, a testament to the quality of care

    She was friendly, but was VERY rushed. She seemed like she was trying to get out of there as quickly as possible and not fully engaging with my questions. She left 10 min before my appointment was scheduled to end. I had to ask a nurse/assistant to bring her back because she hadn't answered all my questions yet.

    I felt that the appointment was very rushed and my questions about disability and the discomfort I had were brushed off. The note written by provider didn't mention any of that but that I felt good.
