Tasmina Sheikh's Online Review Report Card

If I could give 0 stars I would. They somehow "didn't notice" that I was supposed to have a co-pay until several months later and then they refused to give me a refill on my medication until I could pay the $600+ backpay. I don't know how they get off on taking advantage of people with mental health issues, especially when you take a medication that has severe withdrawal symptoms.

Extremely unprofessional

The nurse practitioner I originally went to at this office was great, but then she left and I started going to Sheikh herself. The people at the front desk and the students that were shadowing during our sessions are more competent than she is. One time she even left the room to do something unrelated to me or our session.

Rude and dismissive. Does not seem to care about anyone except herself. She answered phone calls during my entire consultation so she could plan her son’s wedding. Complete disregard for me as a patient and I would not recommend her at all.

Dr. Sheikh has been a life saver when I was in crisis. Her office was quick to schedule an appointment for me when I needed it. She has been keeping track of my medical records and prescribed me medicine that helped me so much.

Dr is very untrustworthy. Nurse practitioner Barbara is condescending. Not once did I ever feel like she even listen to one thing I ever said she just gives everybody the same medication’s and none of them are affective I don’t think she knows what she’s doing at all. I don’t think these people understand the business they’re in. If you’re actually getting help from this place you don’t really have problems. We’re not even gonna get into the fact that I had to go to JFK hospital for a infection and she completely abandoned me there after the staff stole all my medication’s and the best she could do for me was discontinued me as a patient so how is that being a doctor?

I have had nothing but headaches since going to this doctor. I've been billed incorrectly, over charged and have dealt with appointments being late because they forgot or are running behind.

Worst office I have ever been to. They’re extremely unprofessional and rude. They never answer the phone calls and when you leave a voicemail they don’t get back to you for days. It’s extremely hard to try to schedule an appointment because of this and due to this I have had to miss my very important medication multiple times. I would never recommend this office to my worst enemy. Reading some of these reviews and I must say that I agree with every single one that has something bad to say. Those comments are the truth and if you are to go to this office you too will experience this yourself. The doctor herself, from the couple of months I have been going, has always been extremely rude herself and doesn’t seem to listen to me when I speak. She seems to have it in her head already what she has decided for you and despite you wanting to try something different or having negative side effects from the medicine you are on she insists you go through with them, even when I ask to go off of it. They have also charged me multiple times for having to reschedule appointments due to my constant changing schedule and I had to end up paying over 100$ dollars in fines. From what others have said, I’m surprised she hasn’t dropped me as a patient herself but after my last visit I am happy to say it will be my last time seeing her. I am very disappointed in this office and the type of “doctoring” they try to do there. Do yourself a huge favor and find a REAL doctor who can ACTUALLY help you.

If I could give this office no stars I would. I called several times to set up an appointment to be told by the gentleman that he would check my insurance and call me back NEVER got a call back. Finally after a day I called to schedule an appointment and the women verified the insurance to only get a call three days later from a gentleman to say I have no insurance which was false and quickly corrected the issue, following day I get another call with the same situation the women Susan was rude and likes to place people on hold mid conversation when speaking to her she then realised the issue was corrected the day before. I was never seen and I honestly think it was the best choice as if this was the first impression already of lack of communication skills in their office. Very unprofessional to say the least. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR HELP THIS ISNT THE PLACE TO GET IT.

Dr.Sheikh is so wonderful and knows her medications! She listened to me and found the perfect medications for me to help stable my mental health. We can’t forget Susan at the front desk! She has gone above and beyond for me to get a medication approved by insurance. My insurance kept denying to cover a medication that costs over $300 dollars out of pocket. Susan was an advocate for me and I can’t thank her enough for pushing through and bugging those insurance people until they caved in! I travel from an hour away just to go to them. They’re just a great group of people.
