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.

Prescriptions cancelled on me with no conversation
I had an appt. with Dr Mirza in November for a routine appt. I received two daily medications from him previously in September. Just today when I went to renew my prescriptions, both each with 3 refills, I was told by Walgreens that Dr. Mizra closed out my prescriptions on the day of my appointment in November. There was no discussion of this in November and I was not aware in any manner. When I called the OLD BRIDGE office today, the office staff is just short, nasty and uncooperative. She tells me the doctor would never close prescriptions but IRONICALLY, Walgreens had the date of cancellation and it was the date in November that I saw Dr. Mirza. She said they would ask for new refills. I asked how will I know they are approved by your office. She told me I guess you can find out when you go to Walgreens... Overall, he was an OK doctor but it is worth avoiding the OLD BRIDGE office. The front desk staff there is just miserable people. I guess you get what you pay for...

The doctor is wonderful and caring, but his office staff is unprofessional and lacks understanding, empathy and urgency. I called the office 4 times because my mother who is terminally Ill needed a referral for hospice. I spoke with three different people beginning at 9 am and I’m still waiting for a call back 9 hours later. Something should be done.

Dr Mirza is polite, he listens well, step by step in examination, informing patient on observations. He has good "Bedside Manner" and is truly engaged in his patients' care. He explains diagnosis, and treatment options so patient can choose the direction of treatment, and care they prefer. He answers questions clearly. He does follow up care.

i went to Dr Mirza because he was so conveniently located. When I went to the office, the reception has an attitude, so I went back for a physical, the nurse was friendly, the Dr was pretty quick and didnt talk much. But all that would have been fine if I didnt get a bill from them a couple of months later saying my Ins didnt cover physicals, which was wrong...after back and forth w/ my ins co, the office they sent my balance to collections without even a phone call. Terrible way to operate
