In 2019, internist Azra Hussaini, MD, FACP, opened The Doc’s Here, offering telemedicine and house calls to patients. As of 2022, she is also offering in-office visits. The hope of Dr. Hussaini is to provide more accessible, patient-centered primary care to patients in Maryland, with a recent expansion to telemedicine in New York and Virginia as well. Dr. Hussaini welcomes all patients to her practice, no matter their beliefs, religions, cultures, sexuality, or backgrounds. For patients that do not have health care, she will find a way to help them.
Dr. Hussaini decided to run her practice by trying to walk in her patient’s shoes. This means she sees her patients in an unhurried fashion, and as many times it takes to satisfy their concerns. Rather than spending the average six minutes with a patient, she spends a full hour, if needed, speaking to them and addressing their needs. Additionally, she only asks patients to pay what they can afford. This vision was shaped by her training, in which she worked with patients from diverse age groups and socioeconomic backgrounds.
In 1990, Dr. Hussaini finished her medical education at the Dow University of Health Sciences in Pakistan. Afterward, she moved to the United States to pursue a residency in internal medicine at Mount Sinai’s Elmhurst Hospital Center. She went on to complete a fellowship in geriatrics at the Case Western Reserve University Hospitals of Cleveland & Foleys' Elder Health Center. In 1997, she moved to Baltimore with her family and received her board certification in internal medicine.
Having trained in Pakistan and the US, Dr. Hussaini considers herself an energetic, adaptable, and culturally sensitive practitioner. In her practice, she enjoys opportunities to work as an individual or in a team to address patient needs, from wellness exams to chronic care management and mental health evaluations.
Dr. Hussaini wants to make it as easy as possible for all patients to receive compassionate, personalized, wholesome care at any time of day. She will come to you and make you feel better. She wants to be your advocate and help you feel your best. She also offers telehealth appointments for patients who prefer virtual consultations.
To learn more about Dr. Hussaini’s inclusive, personable medicine, do not hesitate to call or book an appointment online.
