Patient
If I could give this practice zero stars, I absolutely would. Our experience with Dr. Quadri Syed was deeply troubling and raised serious ethical and legal concerns. My boyfriend scheduled a physical and a prescription refill, medication originally prescribed by a licensed physician in another state. We believed we were visiting a legitimate primary care provider, but from the moment we arrived, the office felt unprofessional and suspicious. During the visit, Dr. Syed informed us that he would only refill the prescription if we paid him $50 directly, despite our insurance covering the medication. When questioned, he openly admitted to this practice and claimed he was the only one licensed to authorize the refill. He even acknowledged the fraudulent nature of the charge and encouraged us to report him. This behavior is not only unethical, it appears to be illegal. Charging patients off the books and mishandling controlled substances is a serious violation of medical standards. I strongly urge others to avoid this practice and report any similar experiences to the appropriate authorities.
