I recently moved to the area and needed a primary care physician. I went in to have her look at a "thing" on my nose. She told me it was a cyst and that it couldn't be drained but it had to be surgically removed. She told me my nasal passages were very small and said she was surprised I could breath. (I had no issues with breathing). She gave me a referral for a surgeon. I wanted to get more opinions so I not only went to my dermatologist but a nose specialist. Both those opinions were that it wasn't a cyst, but cartilage! Apparently cartilage can shift a bit over time. I was relieved that it ended up being nothing and grateful that I got a few more opinions. After this experience I have absolutely no confidence in her as a doctor. I guess I need to find another primary care doctor.

Shows no empathy or concern. Went in for a sick appointment. She walked it looked at my face from far, as she washed her hands and walked out the room.. 0 professionism.

Dr. Najam is a very good doctor. She will not beat around the bush and will tell you things straight forward. I love that about her and this is the reason why I trust her and love her as my doctor.
