Dr. Farid Karimi, MD

He was never anywhere near on time for his appointments. Give yourself a 2 hour window. He does not actually tell you the risks of the medications. He just says this drug is very safe, he would put his own daughters on it if needed. Pregnant women need to really know the risks. My baby was going through withdrawal when she was born and then I was told I can breastfeed by him. It was absolutely not safe to breastfeed with the drugs I was on. He said I just needed to have the baby's cheek touch by breast for bonding. Yeah that's not exactly what breastfeeding is about for most women. The way he diagnoses certain disorders is not recognized by any other psychiatrist, checking your mouth etc.

Doesn’t care about his patients, always late. Wife is secretary and makes excuses for why he isn’t in the office, all the time. When his office was on 159th st. I wasn’t seen until 12:30 am, and my original appt was scheduled at 5:30pm. I have a new Dr. now that is excellent and is always on time within regular business hours. Now with how great my new psychiatrist is, I often wonder why people would ever deal with Dr. Karimi at all.

Saved my husband's life!

Dr. Karimi if one of a few in millions that knows what he is doing a lot of doctors just med you and keep doing for the money well he has to make it too but they dont get better than him he has been all over world not just to visiti but for knowledge man he is one in a million if you have him or can even get a appointment you make not like his style but he is one of the best to be known

Dr. Karimi is the best psychiatric physician my stepdad has ever had. Dr. Karimi literally saved my stepdad's life. I recommend Dr. Karimi to anyone who needs excellent psychiatric care, as his skills and abilities in this field are amazing.

Dr Karimi hasn't personally seen me in years. When he was the one in the office I would wait HOURS to see him. Over the last two years he has vanished and a revolving doors of physician's assistants have taken over his patients, each with a different approach and philosophy than the one before. It is exhausting as a patient.

i have been a patient of dr karimi for over 20 yrs.there is nobody like him.he has always been there for me when sometimes i didnt feel i deserved him.he has helped me and my life has improved,he will talk to you and hes genuine he cares.after all these years hes not just my doctor hes my friend.he uses the best and most up to date medicine for your illness.he is the best in his field hands down

When my situation got bad he refused to see me anymore
