Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Look no further...BEST DOC EVER !!

Knowledgeable and compassionate, a rare combinatio
Dr. Azam Farooqui at Ironwood Cancer and Research Center in Chandler, AZ has been my Oncologist for several months now. Following a surgical procedure to have a cancerous tumor removed and a lung cancer diagnosis, I met with Dr. Farooqui. He immediately suggested I be tested and found me to be a good Immunotherapy candidate. Under Dr. Farooqui's monitoring and guidance, I am more than happy to report excellent results. Throughout the entire process, Dr. Farooqui has proven to be a knowlegable professional who displays compassion towards his patients.

I have been a patient for a little over one year. Dr Farooqui is one of the most caring and conscientious doctors that I have ever been to. He always takes his time during my appointments, and explains tests and treatment in simple, but thorough language.

Simply the Best!
Dr. Farooqui is simply the best doctor we have ever seen. He is kind, caring, knowledgeable and takes a sincere interest in his patients. We saw him for a concerning 3cm lung nodule from a CT scan and he had additional tests and a biopsy scheduled for my wife within 2 days. Further, he call us personally with test results and next steps in her treatment. The nodule turned out to be active Valley Fever rather than cancer, but Dr. Farooqui continued to follow up with us even after referring is to a lung specialist for VF treatment. The office personnel also do a great job of scheduling and support.

I have Dr. Azam Farooqui for my medical oncologist at Ironwood Cancer Center in Chandler, AZ. Dr. Farooqui is wonderful. He is very kind, patient and understanding. He is always very willing to discuss any questions or problems with my treatment. I am a snowbird and didn't know where to go or what doctor to go see. I was very blessed to be paired up with him. Thank you so much Dr. Farooqui.

Dr. Farooqui is a Godsend
Dr Farooqui was awesome to my sister. He was very kind and patient. My sister had several complications during her chemo and she was in and out of the hospital and emergency room several times. Dr Farooqui would go and visit her at both locations. When my sister started her treatment, Dr. Farooqui provided us with a thorough assessment of what to expect. I could tell that he genuinely cared about my sister. He was not only good to my sister, but to me as well. He provided me with his email in case my sister had any complications and contacted me quickly. I never had a doctor do that. I was very impressed and grateful. I hope I never get cancer, but if I do I want Dr. Farooqui to be my doctor.

Dr Farooqui and his MA Gracie are very professional and thorough. I had questions about what he told me about my blood and he explained them in a way I totally understood. Also he was concerned about the cough that I have and was going to send the results of my blood work to my Pulmonary doctor.

Dr. Farooqui is a very caring doctor. He always explains everything to you very thoroughly. He is always there for you when you feel down and he finds a better solution to make you feel better. He visits you when you're in the hospital. Now I don't have cancer, but I still have to do more visits from time to time. I just want to give him a great big THANK YOU!!!

Snow Bird Treatments
I am a 'snow bird' and have been under Dr. Farooqui's care for over two years. Dr. Farooqui communicates and consults with my Oncologist 'up North' for any major decisions and he has always been spot-on with his advice and assessments. I transfer my medical records back and forth in the spring and fall which can be stressful. Dr. Farooqui and his staff at Chandler Ironwood Clinic have always been very helpful with the transition. Dr. Farooqui is outstanding when communicating via telephone and e-mail. In the last three years, I have met and been treated by over twenty-two doctors (including Mayo Clinic) for my cancer. Dr Farooqui is one of the best I have been privileged to work with. If you are looking for cancer medical help, you need to meet with Dr. Farooqui!

He's the doctor for you!
My family can't say enough about Dr. Farooqui. He's been an incredible support throughout our mother's battle with multiple forms of cancer. His compassionate and attentive approach are truly commendable. Dr. Farooqui is not just a good listener, but also incredibly sympathetic. He goes above and beyond, even being responsive during his vacation and at all hours, which gives us tremendous peace of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend him for anyone in need of an oncologist. His dedication to his patients is truly exceptional!

Personable and professional.
Dr. Farooqui is personal and professional. It is comforting when a Doctor actually listens to your concerns and symptoms but also is sympathetic in response. Professional and willing to collaborate with other professionals to obtain further knowledge so that he is treating his patient with a well rounded care plan. He keeps up with communication by appointments but also with correspondence via email in a timely matter. Dr. Farooqui and his staff is professional and friendly which is an atmosphere to have when dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatments. I've seen many Doctors in my time dealing with cancer and Dr. Farooqui is by far the best!
