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.

Sleep Apnea Cpap
Dr Anwar was very caring when my Cpap machine failed and I went to him for a new script. He did performed all the testing and went through my records and assured me I will have no problem getting it replaced. Very caring and passionate doctor. Highly recommend.

He saved my life
I would say Dr. Anwar saved my life! I had Covid that turned into long haul Covid that then turned into double pneumonia. I was not responding to IV antibiotics and was getting worse to the point that I almost went on a ventilator in CCU. He rightly determined that my immune system was compromised from MS drugs I was taking and for two weeks argued with Hematology to put me on Immunoglobulin therapy. He finally prevailed and from that day forward, I finally started to get better as the antibiotics finally started working.

I went for a well visit. While there, he wanted to know why I refused the Flu Shot, and he acted very annoyed. Then he asked me if I plan to get the Corona Virus Vaccine or if I will choose instead to DIE!! He also grabbed my stomach when he asked about it in a series of health questions. I walked out feeling violated. He is arrogant and condescending and I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM. I will NEVER go back to this horrible man.

I saw Dr Anwar in and off for years, chasing chronic Pulmonary issues. Most recently, I continued to have issue after issue until finally, I saw another Pulmonologist. I was finally diagnosed with Interstitial Lung Disease due to connective tissue disease, a progressive, non-curable condition. I have been successfully undergoing infusions for the last 18 months and the swelling and fibrosis is well controlled. Thank God I went somewhere else or I may not be writing this review right now.

Dr anwar was the covering pulminary dr at huntington hospital in december 2018. The care at this hospital is very good. He was somewhat arrogent when i asked him why my dad was taken off oxygen. He could not answer my question. He looked at the nurse and asked what was the %. Well dad was released and levels went down to 75%, normal would be 90% or more. He billed for two visits but sent dad home with wheezing and a touch of pneumonia.. would not reccommend

ER visit at Huntington w/ my mother 4 pneumonia (in March) Anwar diagnosed a "fungal ball" in her lung.We chose to use him when pneumonia occurred 2 months later.Treatment was chest xray & antibiotics.Then again & again & again same sickness, same treatment!! I took her back to the ER in Dec. this time I requested a biopsy on "fungal ball" Oh so sorry! It is squamous cell lung cancer 4 (spread to windpipe) he had her family history (lung cancer ran in her family) & that was the crap treatment!!!

Dr Anwar was pleasant and professional and saw me even though I wasnt a regular patient of his whereas the 2 other drs who I had seen for many years were too involved in political jockeying about whose patient I was and both refused to see me when I needed them. He had personnel in his office do a full battery of pulmonary function tests which was more than my usual drs did. He was able to say that I was still sick from a viral illness and that it would take some more time to regain my strength.
