Dr. Zakaria Siddiqui, MD

I would recommend

I was happy with the visit and he was awesome

Extremely unprofessional runs through the diagnostic procedure in less than two minutes. Doesn't listen to your concerns nor does he answer questions when asked directly, diverts, And pretends it's the patient's problem.This gentleman and I use that word loosely. It took me off of the medication because he said it would cause me To develop diabetes. I did the research is was correct. Only to be put back on that same drug the next time we met. Which is just another testament to how he is incapable at his job. To put somebody back on to a medication that you told them would cause them to get Diabetes in less than four, Is either lack of abilities in his job. Or blatant disregard for For his fellow humans. Either way doesn't really matter what matters is he's a dangerous person to see. Please, for God's sake if you're reading this. Do not disregard off hand. Literally your life could be at stake.

Shows little interst and also thinks he can diagnose patient immediately and won't discuss issues while patient is in the room while family in room making patient feel worse

Doesn’t take any time with you. He feels he can make a thorough diagnosis in 2 minutes. I would avoid him of possible.

This doctor displays little knowledge of his field and disturbing lack of attention to clients

Patient had been diagnosed at Mayo with Alzheimer’s and Lewy Bodies/Parkinson’s (later confirmed by autopsy). Dr. Siddiqui admited that he doesn’t believe these diagnosis & treated for depression & hallucination, using a drug not recommended for Lewy Bodies patients.

If you're looking for a p-doc with a buddy-buddy bedside manner, keep looking. But if you want a one who knows the information in his field, and is very professional, willing to explain why he's choosing this medication over that one; above all, genuinely loves his job and cares about the patients, working long and thankless hours when he could be setting his own and raking in big bucks in private practice, trust him. He's only human, but he IS a very good doctor.
