Dr. Mohsin Syed, MD

Answers all my questions satisfactorily. Recommends steps to address health issues. Spends the needed time with patients, regardless how busy he is. Has a very efficient office staff that returns calls and handles prescription needs promptly.

When I first started seeing Dr. Syed 10+ years ago, I thought he was a good doctor. He had good bedside manner and took his time to listen to my concerns. He is also very knowledgeable. However, in recent years, he has been taking too many patients. I was starting to be overlooked at Dr. Syed's office. He prescribed medications without considering my background. His staff are also extremely rude, probably because they can't handle the case load and take it out on patients. I transferred to a different doctor's office. It was the best decision I could've made. My new PCP takes the time to know my background and monitor my health conditions. It's been refreshing. My new PCP also told me not to take one of the meds Dr. Syed prescribed because it would make one of my conditions worse. I appreciate not being treated like a number anymore.

In cahoots with pain management at SDMC and they tell you he is going to "MONITOR" your pain meds which you have been taking for over 10 years for chronic back and neck pain. When in reality he is taking you completely off them. No compassion, uppity attitude and staff is very rude much like him. DO NOT LET HIM INTO YOUR HEALTH CARE

Based on my experience Dr. Syed is competent, caring, kind and operates with patient's best interest in mind. Staff members are also professional and decent. However, this comment does not reflect my views toward Slocum-Dickson Medical Group in its entirety.

Excellent doctor!

Dr Syed is one of the best doctor I ever had…. he takes time and address all my concerns. Onetime, I brought a long list of my problems and he whole heartedly discuss all with me. Unlike other docs he never said I can only discuss 2 or 3 problems. Yes we went over my 15 minutes time slot and I was apologizing but he said whoever is in front of him is his only concerns. He would never rush anyone’s visit to finish on time! I know he works hard and truly cares about his patients. I have never mind waiting for him as I know he do justice to everyone! God bless him

Had issues with the Dr. Syed not listening to my symptoms or myself in general. Prescribed a dosage that was twice the amount I previously took for my preventive medication which caused side effects. Side effects were clearly stated on the medication (my body started to seize, heart palpitations, tightness in chest, etc.). This caused me to be in and out of the ER multiple times within a year even though I had no prior health issues. I had brought up the possibility that it was the medication but was told that it could't have been the medication, that it was most likely panic attacks, and to keep taking the medication (The medication was the only thing that had changed in my lifestyle). He came up with no solutions so I had to systematically remove everything from my diet (dairy, supplements, etc.) until I finally stopped taking the pill which stopped all the symptoms. One day I hope he reads this and understands that he put me through over a year of pain because he wasn't listening.

Good bedside manner, takes time to explain.

Dr Syed sincerely cares for the health of his patients. He takes the time to review your file, always fits me in for an emergency

Dr.syed has done above and beyond to help me. He gives me confidence and self respect when I needed most.

I have NEVER been treated like horrible crap like this before. I am a terminal cancer patient, brain, blood and bone marrow. Also, i have metal in my spine and 12 herniated disks I will never go back. I am now suffering in excruciating pain and not a surgical candidate anymore. I now have to set up Hospice care. I have had multiple heart attacks from the pain and calcified arteries. Just wanted to say thanks for making me suffer. AND NO I WILL NOT REFER FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO HIM!

Very good experience, on time and clear.

Compssion and care discribed this doctor

I have been his patient for the last 5 yrs he is kind and personable.

Great doctor. Treat me with respect n time.

Excellent compassionate care

He is one of the most compassionate doctor i ever come across. Due to my illnes, i lost my insurance, he continued to see me free of cost and provided medication samples free.

Dr Syed was my sisters doctor and with her at st Lukes Hospital. He became very unprofessional and mistreated my sister once she wanted to transfer to a different hospital. He said no so quick. I knew right then her rights were violated. After he was reprimanded he came to her room and tried to coach her to say she doesnt really need to be transferred. Soon as she confirmed she still wanted to Albany Medical Center only then he said he wasnt able to get a physician to accept her and that I need
