Fayyaz Haq, MD

Dr. Haq is a jerk. I called my insurance before scheduling my annual physical to confirm that it was 100% covered, since money is tight right now and my insurance isn’t so great. He gave me an EKG without mentioning it wasn’t covered, and charged me for TWO office visits (even though I was only there once, and for 30 minutes max!) just because I asked about some pain in my ankle! Moreover, he wasn’t even able to give me good advice on said ankle! I asked him what exercises I could do, and his response was «Stay off it. Swimming.» Suuuper comforting to be told a) you can’t run for six weeks and b) what exercise you can do will only burn a handful of calories! I kept asking him and his assistant what cardio I could do, and their response was «bicycling at a moderate pace» Are you kidding me?! That’s not going to get my heart pumping at all!
I would switch doctors/​hospitals, but I’ve heard bad things about Grady and Emory too… Why can’t there be a decent hospital in this town?!
