Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

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

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

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

Teri O'Neil is a genuine, through and consummate health care professional. Dr. Syed is caring, knowledgeable and an attentive listener. The support staff is welcoming and very helpful. I will be a patient here with Teri and Dr. Syed for as long as I live in this area. I highly recommend. There are not enough laudatory adjectives to give them the highest rating possible.

I've been seeing Dr Syed for several years. Initially, I was not impressed but due to insurance restrictions, I stayed with him. Over the past few years, my experience and opinion has changed. He's hired knowledgable and congenial assistance, incorporated online technology for appointment setting, and notifications. The wait times in-office are still too long, but other than that, I've become quite pleased with this practice!

Dr. Syed is an excellent doctor who seems to genuinely care about his patient. He took time to listen to my medical issues and did not try to hurry me out. His staff is efficient, friendly, and thorough. I would recommend him as a PCP to anyone.
