Sofia Rizwan, MD, Psychiatrist

Would highly recommend you seek care elsewhere. She was late for visits multiple times, accused me of being late for visits (when I wasn’t), and didn’t really seem to have a good personality for a speciality where you have to speak to people often. I’ve had worse experiences with psychiatrists, but she seemed very judgmental. Not the vibes you want when you’re seeking psychiatric care as there is already a stigma there. I was not comfortable sharing my whole medical history or feelings with her, which again, isn’t what you want.

I was a patient with her 1 year ago . This is by far the worst psychiatrist I’ve been with , all she dose is prescribe medication and dosent even speak with you about your issues . She dosent really care about what you have going on in your life and is sometimes very rude. even the staff was rude over the phone ( Maria ) . I recommend not going to her at all.

My experience with Dr. Rizwan has been excellent. She is an amazing person and a doctor. She and her staff are very polite, I am able to get hold of the doctor right away which I feel is great and compared to my old psychiatrist, this is very convenient. She is very knowledgeable.

Psychiatry can sometimes feel like a doctor who doesn't know you well throwing diagnoses and medications at you until something sticks. Much less so with Dr. Rizwan. If you're able to communicate your life context to her, she will listen; moreover, she's careful about trying to track side effects and tailoring your treatment to lessen them. She's been treating me for years now.

Dr. Rizwan is my husband's doctor, and I have known her professionally for more than eight years. I find Dr. Rizwan a compassionate, kind, caring, spiritual, and humble doctor. She is very direct and honest regarding expectations, which I greatly respect. Dr. Rizwan displayed patience and poise through some very trying times; literally saving my husband's life. We love Dr. Rizwan and are forever grateful for everything she has done. I praise Dr. Rizwan and give all credit to her as both a doctor and a person. We continue with her for ongoing treatment and medication management.
