Dr. Farooq Hassan, MD

Spend whole visit blaming patient and everybody that sees him and PA have fibromyalgia!

I waited over two months for my appointment. Drove an hour to Hermitage, and waited for about 20 minutes for Dr. to see me. Once he did he stood me up, spun me around, poked me here and there, and asked me if it hurt, gave me some blood work and X-ray papers, a prescription I didn't need and was then gone within minutes. Everytime I tried to speak he cut me off as though I didn't know anything about what I've been enduring for YEARS. I've worked on an assembly line, and that day he made me feel as though I was the product.

Zero bedside manner. In and out of office before you can speak. PA does not have a great manner either. Very short and does not listen. Unprepared for appointment.

on my last visit, spent three minutes with me. poked me really hard several times and asked if it hurt. i said, "no," because it wasn't my joint that hurt. it was the poke. walked out the door while i was mid-question. told me he would call in methotrexate and mobic and part of what to be cautious about with methotrexate. left out three things i should watch for that might kill me. pharmacy had only plaquenil. called to ask why. no call back in a week.

I have been a patient for over 10 years. He has my condition under control. He is a quite man and is a professional. You need to ask your question he will answer them. If you're looking for long explanations he's not you man. If you don't understand something you need to be more specific in your questions. I have and will continue to recommend him. His office staff is very busy but professional yet friendly. If you follow his instructions and be responsible for your health he will help.

Everything about my experience with him has been terrible. He doesn't listen to anything I say. He pushes me out the door as fast as possible. And he completely ignores any concerns I have. Last time I was there I left and cried. My condition has not been under control but he refuses to change any medication or give me help for better management. I am a paycheck to him and that is it. I'd imagine he treats all of his patients this way..
