"Not at all your standard "in and out" doctor. Professional yet will take the time to really get to know and understand you. Also understands your own time frame, while his own schedule is easy to work around. Starting out on managing health issues is difficult, I know 100% I was set with the right doctor for the not so fun journey.

At that point of time I went to Dr Atif Shahzad someone referred me so I went to his clinic which is on i45 so I went there basically he deals with adult patients not the child but since I requested him he saw my son and diagnosed after that he gave a medication and asked me to followup for the treatment incase if he doesn't get better Alhamdulillah he is doing perfectly alright now I feel that the method was he used was absolutely fantastic where I HV wasted my 4 months time going different clinic and hospital but still no satisfaction but at least Allah swt has shown me the way where I HV contacted Dr Atif Shahzad and I can say that God has given him a cured in his hand.

The only big issue is that it seems that too many patients were scheduled at the same time. They asked me to come 30 minutes early from my appointment time and didn’t call me in until 50 minutes after the scheduled time."
"Well run practice. Wait times are a bit long sometimes , up to 40 min. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to take 2 hours off work, drive 30 min one way, only to get a new prescription drug"
"I was searching for a really good Gastroenterology doctor and came across Dr. Shahzad. Of course we all read the reviews on doctors because we want the best care especially when sick and a lot of his reviews were really good. So I called being a new patient and they were able to get me in same day! When I got there I waited an hour passed my appointment time and the staff was able to let me know ahead of time. I didn't mind the wait at all because I heard that he really really listens to his patients and helps them. He is not one of those doctors that are in and out, in which I really respect. So that's why there was a little wait time. He really wants to help his patients get better and do whatever he has to do to get them better, in which he reassured me. =)"
"Dr Shazad has a ginuine concern for his patients. He is easy to talk to and takes his time to ensure he answers all your concerns.
