I really respect and quite honestly love my Dr. She is one of reasons I am alive, and doing well. We had a rough patch many years ago cause I was lying about my sobriety, and had it fixed in my mind she didn’t care. When I told Show moreher how I was feeling she immediately was shocked and became empathetic and quickly assured me no she does care. That moment transitioned into trust. And i was able to be honest about everything in my life, my outbursts, my thoughts, feeling of society, I have sought help with EMDR therapy and she was a champion walking side by side with me, During the process of working the 12 steps of AA and practicing my spiritual program she allowed me and watched me to step down off of medication seeing me monthly. So I could experience the process of the steps without being entirely medicated. I thank God for her. She is a woman for woman’s improvement. The betterment of society as a whole. She even told me the truth with common sense and tact of how my foul mouth took away from my charm. And that maybe the people I deal with daily and whom have an issue with it would like to know me but it’s just too abrasive for some. I couldn’t believe she was so kind but direct and to the point. Yea She definately cares. My life and myself as a recovered woman has changed immensely I am a business owner, living a full and fruitful life. Not the recluse, victim, judging society gaining weight and wanting to harm myself with my own hands. Being medicated properly is a process of trial and error, you have to as a patient with mental illness, be an active participant in your own healing physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Dr Zafar encourages that and will be on your cheering squad so to speak. I love her. I respect her, and in truth I feel she feels the same.. I am the most blessed woman I know having her on my side.
I did my due diligence and research prior to coming to this I did my due diligence and research prior to coming to this MD. I was told good things and I was told good bad things, so I figured I would make the decision for myself. Show moreI think she is a caring and pathetic physician, but does not tend to listen to the patient point of view of what medication’s work and what does not work for them considering they’ve tried a lot and they are in the field. She is extremely more educated than I am, and I am going to give it a chance in hopes that she is right, and I am wrong, and the other MDs that I did speak to regarding her practice Ways and ability to treat are incorrect. But because I am in a state that I do need help and willing to trust in the fact that her education and her experience will help me become less of a train wreck

I am very happy with my care and Dr Zafar
My Dr. Uzma has brought me through many many trials. I am able to think more clearly. I can manage my affairs much better. Doctor is my number one.
I have been a patient of Dr Zafar‘s for over 10 years. Her unequivocal understanding of my mental illnesses and her desire to help me overcome their devastating effects in all aspects of my personal, social, and Work life. Her and her staff i feel are committed to help me as an individual to succeed. She for myself doesn't pull any punches with me so to speak, i can and have trusted and relied on her honest opinion of situations that if i follow through have always worked out.. She doesn't believe in over medicating. Thats what i love about our interactions with each other. She works well w me by listening and drawing an educated conclusion on how to best help me. Thank you dr zafar and your staff for being such great mental health workers.
