We are just starting out with Dr. Haider, but he knew what tests my husband should have been given at our previous practice. I feel that if he had been our primary doctor earlier, my husband's hyperparathyroidism would have been diagnosed before it did so much damage to his body.

Dr. Syed Haider is the BEST! Easy to talk to and you can ask him anything. Never makes me feel rushed and takes the time to answer any and all questions. If you tell him something is wrong he says let's fix it. And he always does. Dr. Haider came highly recommended to me by my hospital doctor when I was a patient a few years ago. I didn't have a primary care doctor anymore since Dr. [ ] left so I took a chance. And so happy that I did. Did I mention that Dr. Syed Haider is the BEST!
