Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I would highly recommend this physician!
Dr. Nizam was very knowledgeable and thorough with his evaluation. He spent a lot of time with the examination and listening to me and my husband. Offered testing to figure out my husbands medical condition. We finally got some answers during our visit :)

Definitely recommend
He gave my husband a very thorough exam. Pulled up his X-ray and gave a good explanation of the condition of his aging brain. Gave us options for treating him and was respectful of my concerns. Dr. Nizam was recommended to us and I would definitely recommend him. I left there much relieved that my husbands condition was not worse than what I was thinking in my mind.

INCREDIBLE DOCTOR WHO KNOWS HIS STUFF
Before he treated me, I was in horrible pain. After he treated me, the pain went away and it stayed away. I was able to live a pain free life.

I had an appointment as a new patient today with Dr. Dr.Nizam at their Core office on 25th st. in N. Phoenix. Dr. Nizam was 1 hour and 20 minutes behind appointment time, and while still waiting in the exam room, I could hear him listen to his personal phone messages, and then called that person back to talk. AT that point I walked out of the exam room and called him out, and made it clear I would never be back. Terrible doctor. He did not care a bit that he had me waiting to see him, long after my appointment time.

I love Dr. Nizam- he's someone who is very kind and caring and also addresses all of your concerns. He doesn't rush you and also considers what you'd like as a patient. He presents to you solutions for the diagnosis and always asks what you'd like to do, which is something that I appreciate, as not all providers do that. Highly recommend.

Saw Dr Nizam in the hospital and he was very nice, professional and took the time to talk to both myself and my husband about everything that was going on. I am very particular about my doctors and he definitely passes the test.
