The Workers Comp go-to Nuerologist for insurance companies wanting to an explanation for why a person is able to work even when they are not! 3 minute evaluation and 9 pages of how I'm fine to work and faking my injuries. Well lucky for me I recorded the visit which shows he completely lied. Also his reason for my faking was a result of my response to a vision test. Good thing he did send me to a Neuro Optometrist / Optomologist because when I went many weeks after seeing him the told me after 4 hours of testing my eyes were so bad still I couldn't drive. Now after being back they said I'm not allowed to drive still and it's been many months since I've seen Dr. Ifran Altafullah. Oh he's also good at using outdated science to back up his claims which in my option makes him smart unless he wasn't smart and didn't really know but 6 other Dr.s knew this so it is difficult to say for certain.

i saw this doctor after an auto accident for an insurance company. his report was terrible. he NEVER took any x-rays or had an MRI scan done, but with a reasonable degree of medical certainty, he said i did'nt need any more medical attention and no physical therapy. he must think he has x-ray vision!! i have damaged disks!!!! in my neck and upper back! he also re-wrote the reports of other specailists and doctors. i would recommend NOT useing this doctor.

dr. altafullah is a terrible dr. i have never met a more unprofessional dr. in my life. he examined me for an insurance company due to an auto accident. dr. altafullah never took any images, i guess thats why he missed the disks that are damage in my spine!! he put in his report that i would not need any further medical help. dr. altafullah was paid by the insurance company for this report!!

Please keep in mind that the waiting room time is minimal, considering that Dr. Altafullah comes out to get you and takes you directly back to his office and exam room, he does not have a nurse do this for him. If you have a call in question most of the time he is the one to call you back, again not a nurse. My husband and I respect Dr. Altafullah and his opinion in my diagnosis of MS. I have been a patient of his for 6 years and I do not plan on changing anytime soon.

My 36 year old husband had a stroke and Dr. Altafullah gave him TPA to dissolve it asap. My husband had very little residual from his stroke and we really liked Dr. Altafullah's care and follow up.
