Dr. Sonia Karima Qadir

Worse “Dr” ever. Always in a rush. Michelle, one of her medical assistants, rude and disrespectful. Last time I needed a phone appointment, Dr. Qadir did it in 2 minutes. I wasn’t even able to explain my symptoms. Do a favor to yourself and go somewhere else.

Very rude to patients who do not agree with her, she does not believe in medical freedom, and talk about my mental health in front of her staff. I will never recommend this doctor.

I'm very satisfied with the care I receive at Melville Medical Care. Dr. Qadir and her team are very friendly, very professional, and most importantly very competent. I trust them, and whenever I visit the office, either for a problem or a routine physical, I know I will be taken care of.

I first went to this Dr in November of 2020, because I needed a physical. The medical assistant performed 90% of the physical, and the Dr spent literally under 4 minutes with me, through which she rushed through her basic questions and did not allow for me to fully explain or ask anything in additional. This Dr over-books and does not care to listen to her patients, which could be somewhat justified if at the very least she would provide full and thorough medical advise. Two weeks after my physical I had to return to this office because I wanted a covid test, and all urgent care places had very long waits. The Dr provided no guidance or instructions on when I would be considered non-contagious, nor when she would advise to be tested again, or even if that’s necessary. Her receptionist was consistently short and rude each time I called to try and speak with the Dr after being in quarantine for over three week. It’s a shame that a so-called healthcare provider cares only about money.

Her receptionist was consistently short and rude each time I called to try and speak with the Dr after being in quarantine for over three weeks since I was never told what to do. Finally when the Dr wouldn’t call me back, I asked for a detailed letter stating the date I was tested and whether or not I was no longer considered contagious. The receptionist literally told me I called every day and she had too much work, and that the Dr would call me when she could. Needless to say, I never called after that and I would never use this Dr again. It’s a real shame how many so-called healthcare providers truly don’t care about patients, but only the money they’re paid to see them for less than 4 minutes.

Dr. Qadir has been an inconsistent doctor - I've been a patient for around 5-6 years and at the beginning found that she was exhaustive in her testing. Her nurse/aide was a complete pleasure to see and spend time with, love her. Dr. Qadir's care however has really dropped off in quality - in later years, the time together was rushed, sometimes she shunts me off to a different doctor, I don't feel like I'm being heard, and today she cancelled my appointment, refusing to listen to me. Now I'm hearing from friends and acquaintances how they have had horrible experiences with her and are finding new doctors. I wish I had realized sooner. I'm done with Doctor Qadir, absolutely frustrated and upset.

there is no communication between the doctor and the front desk

I've been seeing Dr. Qadir for almost a decade. Her team is friendly and efficient. I recommend her 100% to anyone who is looking for a professional Dr. who treats her patients with care and concern.

While personable, I found her to be uninformed and somewhat insecure and defensive. On top of that, it took her two months to call the pharmacy with my Rx. I called daily about it for a week then went elsewhere and got what I needed phoned in the same day. Two months later I get a call from the pharmacy telling me my Rx was ready. That’s how I know it took two months for her to call it in. The pharmacy said it was called in earlier that same day from her office. I no longer needed it. She has also made mistakes on my husbands meds. She doesn’t really listen and seems unconcerned. She is great for the first appointment in terms of engagement then she could care less. Never gets back to you for info or follow up. You have to call several times to get a response.

Terrible. She rushes through your appointment. She does not follow up with results. When you call to speak with her regarding health concerns, she has her office staff, who have no medical training, call you back. They also had mixed up information regarding my health history. The quality of care is very concerning

Its true - she really is a bad doctor. I went to her about a serious sore throat that would not go away for 2 weeks. She diagnosed it as "not strep", therefore it must be that I need a nasal wash! I went again a week later. She refused to prescribe antibiotics (i.e., a Z Pack) or even do some tests to see what it might be. She's too busy. Barely 5 minutes of her time and kaching, she's made her money. Sonia Qadir is a walking failure. You might get lucky with her but broken clocks...

Dr Qadir provides excellent care and guidnce.

I have been coming to Dr qadir for abt 3 years and I have had a few med issues that sometimes require me to visit 1x a week for Dr. Qadir to help me. Dr.Qadir, Cathy, Fran ,Maria and Michelle are awesome. They are patient with me. When I call for medication refills it is done immediately and Dr. Qadir works with my other dr. to make sure I get proper care. I can honestly say This team is works together to give great care. I would recommend anyone looking for a.DR to call and set an appt.

Love this office and staff!

Very rude! Very unprofessional!!! I definitely would not recommend her!

Dr. Qadir is one of the most helpful and insightful doctors I've ever had an experience with. Her staff is fantastic. Her office is always very clean and the wait times are very short. I would definitely recommend her to any friends or family.

In my 57 years I have had great doctors an some not so great, but Dr. Qadir is the least interested in her patients welfare that I have ever met.

Dr. Qadir has been my physician for the past 11 years. I’m very pleased with my experience and highly recommend her to my friends and family.

Dr. Qadir is a very direct provider- she tells it like it is. If you want someone to explain in detail and walk you through health issues, I recommend going to a specialist. She is nice, but blunt. She does seem a bit rushed until you engage her in a dialogue and ask questions, she will give you answers but you have to come with information. The staff is super responsive and the medical assistants are wonderful! I have never had to wait long and the office is never overcrowded which is nice.

Dr. Qadir is not only a great professional practitioner, but patient and caring. She takes the time to explain why you are having the symptoms you are having and how to best remedy the health issue. She has always provided the utmost care to me and my family. She is a professional that can be trusted.

I'm so happy to of found a doctor who is genuinely concerned about my well being and is quick about getting to the bottom of my issues she immediately sent me to her husband's hospital for MRI's to be done same day!!! her bed side manner is excellent and her staff is friendly. I am confident Sonia Qadir will fix me and in a timely manner so I can get back to my 5 children and husband. Thank you for showing me kindness that alone gives me peace of mind.

she will walk that extra mile for you and she takes the time to explain so that you leave with understanding of your condition and options.

Awful Doctor. You are just a number. Never saw her wash her hands! She never calls with results, you have to seek her out. She is more interested in filling in wrinkles and selling Girl Scout cookies then patient care. Always worried about getting sued. Was misdiagnosed many many times by her. Go elsewhere!
