Dr. Naveed Iqbal, MD

Sounded like an excellent doctor during phone intake. But Is The Worst. 2+ weeks of calling. Never returned calls. Never refilled vital medication despite repeatedly telling his answering machine I desperately needed a refill. I've been without that medication, the only medication he prescribed, for over 2 weeks. From the second his answering machine picks up, you often hear nothing but music. No identification. Just endless rmusic. Useless And Dangerous!

Dr. Iqbal is brusque, rude and could have cared less about me or my mental health. Makes people wait for several hours in his office, spends the entire session taking notes and not looking at the patient, refused to give me any medication for sleep or anxiety. If you have a choice of doctors, I would go elsewhere. He does have a lovely office and staff, the only positive thing I can say for him.

Dr.Iqbal made sure I stayed relaxed, he was flexible with his time and actually listened, provided actionable next steps that realistically made sense. Office was clean and staff accommodated my schedule.

I’ve been seeing Dr Iqbal since 2016. I went straight to him right after I got out of rehab, and I’ve been clean ever since. I’ve seen many psychiatrists in my day, but Dr Iqbal is different. He genuinely wants what’s best for his patients. I could be having the worst day, but after a session with him, that stress just goes away. He asks the right questions. He listens to what you have to say. He can be direct, which for me, as a recovering addict, is exactly what I need. Whenever I celebrate my sobriety milestones, I always say that it’s thanks to hard work and Dr Iqbal. I honestly don’t know where I would be today if it wasn’t for him. He taught me about my disease, how to push through cravings, and how to be honest with him and myself. My husband and I ended up getting pregnant about a year and a half into my sobriety and Dr Iqbal was there for us every step of the way, supporting me and my family. After the pregnancy, he opted to see me right away and more frequently in order to screen and assess for PPD(postpartum depression). He educated me and told me that someone like me runs a higher risk of PPD and there he was, a few weeks after I had the baby, asking questions and counseling me and actually caring. I just have so much respect for this man and I feel like he’s making strides in treating the addiction epidemic and saving so many lives along the way.

Had a wonderful experience for my first appointment

He has being caring and professional since the first visit. Most attentive and knowledgeable doctor I have ever known. If I say something bad about Dr. Naveed is a lie. He has been a great help to me. He listens to you and takes his time with you. Great office staff! Been with him since 2011 no complaints. Dr. Igbal is an underrated Psychiatrist he has been by my side for 7 years.

Very rude doctor, big liar, dishonest

Dr.Iqbal is an underrated westchester psychiatrist and has been by my side for 2+ years. Best in the area!

The only reason I tolerate him is because of suboxone without it I would be sick. He is extremely rude , pompois, and doesn't let me even talk. I he gives you what he wants without discussing your history, feelimgs, anything . I'm leaving asap

understands, listens and great office staff!! Been going for years

He is rude with a bad temper. Mean to me and his assistant.

Dr. Naveed Iqbal, has been a great help to me and a family member as well. their has been some improvement in our lives. We are still a work in progress. I am not one to say much. But, I must honestly say he listen to you and takes his time with you. To figure out best treatment for your condition. I only see him once a month. but I would recommend this doctor to others.

Excellent Dr

This person is practicing in the wrong profession . I was wondering how it was that I got such a quick appointment , well after my 2nd visit I am no longer wondering . All he does after looking at you for the 1st 2mins is write prescription . He doesn't listen to the problems, he is abrupt and doesn't want to be bothered. If you are Psychologically unstable , please ,please stay away from this person . It is my opinion he is working for the "DRUG" companies.

Dr. Iqbal is consistently mean, intimidating, abrupt, and insulting

I am amazed at how several reviewers claim that this doctor is so unprofessional, uncaring, bully, etc....! You obviously have not been to the doctor that I had before seeking help with Dr Iqbal. All of the negative comments stated in these reviews can be doubly applied to the boor that I first saw. I left that practice because of the abuse and unprofessionalism, and subsequently filed a grievance with my insurance company. I carefully chose to take a chance with Dr. Iqbal, after assessing the other doctors in my plan. I have no complaints with this doctor. He has been caring and professional since the first visit, and makes me feel that what I have to express is important. I hope that all continues along this path, because what others of you have said about him is really troubling. He also does not rush me, as did the prior doctor, nor brush aside what I want to say. I'll keep you updated, if circumstances change....for now, I have no negative comments, including none for his staff (courteous, helpful)....

Most attentive and knowledgable doctor I have ever known.

if i say something bad about this doctor it.s a lie he is an angel he saved my life many a times even when i was broke and no insurance he saw me for free.. I been with this doctor for over ten years without once a complaint THANK YOU DOCTOR for helping me when i needed it the most....

Then come to him and get it. But of you're looking for a doctor who actually cares for their patient and will take time to listen, diagnose, and treat you then don't waste your time.

Exceptional way for treatment if it suits.
