"I went to see Dr. Faruqi for stomach issues. He did an endoscopy during which I aspirated and ended up in the ER with pneumonia. While there, he came to see me and told me it had to do with my lap band and it needed to come out and recommended bariatric surgeon. I couldn’t get an appointment for 2 weeks. I was admitted into the hospital. The next day the surgeon came to see me. Dr. Faruqi had called him and asked him to come see me. Within 2days I had my lap band out and. Was able to keep food down for the first time in months. Thanks to Dr. Faruqi."
"I understand that dealing with office staff can be frustrating for some people, but office staffing does not speak to the competency of the doctor. I would like to speak about Dr. Faruqi's skill as a gastroenterologist. We first encountered Dr. Faruqi in the hospital when my husband had a seizure, brought on by a bleeding ulcer. Dr. Faruqi was very concerned and explained everything to me in detail. He was always polite and professional with me. Our follow-up at his office was equally seamless. He convinced my husband to have a colonoscopy, something we'd always felt uneasy about due to the seizure disorder. The colonoscopy went smoothly, though there were several large polyps that were of concern. Dr. Faruqi tattooed the area where one was removed. As it turned out, there were cancer cells within that polyp. When the cancer was discovered, we opted to go immediately to a cancer center for further treatment. Luckily, the cancer was only minimally invasive, though we opted to remove part of the colon and lymph nodes due to a small chance of spreading. The tattoo that Dr. Faruqi put in the colon will aid in finding the exact spot in the colon where the polyp was. I credit Dr. Faruqi with saving my husband's life, not only by thoroughly explaining the colonoscopy prep and how it wouldn't be dangerous but also tattooing the spot for the upcoming surgery. I would highly recommend him."
