Marlene Rocha Farooq, MD

Absolute worst doctor I have ever dealt with. Her attitude would have you think that she knows it all, but the reality is that she brushes off patients and their knowledge even when they are right. Trust me, you don't want a doctor with an ego like hers working for you. In the words of our recent president, I think anyone serious about their health should say Dr. Farooq, You're Fired. Also, if you or your staff read this, please remove me from your mailing list. I don't know why you think I would ever want to be a returning patient after what happened.

This is the worst doctor's office I've ever dealt with. Dr Farooq herself is very pleasant but the admin here makes you feel like you're in a Seinfeld episode. Besides them never getting my appointment time right, two key incidents: 1) I requested my medical records be sent to my other doctor three separate times, and was met with confusion each time, and then finally, told that I had to pay a $25 dollar fee. I was not told any of the previous times that I had to pay any fee, so is that the reason my records didn't go through? I'll never know. Finally ave up and paid the fee. 2) I went in for tests, was examined, completed the tests. Waited for my results. Called back when they did not arrive on time. Was told I had never done the tests in the first place, that they do not conduct those particular tests at the office, and that I must have been imagining it. I decide to skip over this insanity and get my tests done at Quest. Two weeks later, I get a call from this office and they tell me they found my test results because they had it registered under a different name. At this point, I have already received my results from Quest and do not know what they're going to tell me since they insisted they don't conduct that suite of tests. The Dr calls me and gives me results for something completely different that would have been much more helpful had I received the results a month ago. Would not recommend at all.

My mom's doctor visit was a truly positive experience. Dr. Farooq was incredibly attentive and kind throughout the entire appointment. She took the time to thoroughly address all of my mother's concerns. Her friendly demeanor and genuine interest in her well-being made her feel comfortable and confident in her care. We are grateful for the excellent experience and would highly recommend Dr. Farooq to anyone seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable doctor.

After the culturally affirming care I received from Dr. Farooq, during my initial visit, I can say with confidence that my search for a primary care physician is officially over. As a patient who had all but lost faith in the medical care system, Dr. Farooq made me feel seen and heard. She treated me with dignity and respect. She was patient and kind. Her diagnostic care was professional, personable, and very thorough. I literally asked her, "Where have you been my whole life?" Simply put, she (and her office staff) are amazing...and I am a grateful and satisfied new patient.
