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.

Great doctor, now retired.
Dr. Iqbal is a very compassionate, experienced, respected, and competent pain management doctor. I went to make an appointment at St. Francis-Emory interventional pain management center and there was a notice that it was closed temporarily due to the retirement of Dr. Iqbal. I wish him all the best in his retirement! Thank you for all you did for me, Doctor.

Dr. Iqbal is a wonderful doctor who listens closely to what you are telling him. He has been treating me for a little over a year and a half, for cervical, back, and hip problems. There has never been a moment that I have doubted what he has said or recommended! He obviously cares about his patients. The wait time is minimal to see him. Not only is Dr Iqbal awesome, but so is his entire staff! From the moment I walk in to the moment I leave, everyone treats you with a smile, care, concern.

if there is a pain in the body, Dr. Iqbal will find its source! Wonderfully nice, great pain team! He puts blocks, shots and radiofrequencies up and down me starting with the TN, Occipital Nerve, Neck and back. Sweet. sweet doctor. Is sympethetic towards real pain, explains procedures in depth. I cant rave enough about this doctor and it took me years of really bad doctors to find him.
