    I am so grateful to have found Dr. Malik. I had been suffering from hypertension for years and also endured two strokes that occurred in the last 6-7 years. I had seen multiple doctors while being inpatient and had not established appropriate care/followup outpatient. Dr. Malik was the first to really listen and connect the dots. He didn't just rush to a conclusion; he took the time to review my full history, ordered specific tests, and explained his diagnostic process every step of the way. He was incredibly thorough and came up with a probable diagnosis, with a rare neurological condition that finally made sense of some of my symptoms. His expertise and dedication have truly changed my life. I finally have a better understanding for what I'm dealing with and a clear treatment plan. I would highly recommend Dr. Malik! He is an amazing doctor and is passionate and very knowledgeable!

    I can't say enough good things about Dr. Malik. He took an exceptionally long amount of time discussing, and reviewing my case with my sister and I. He was thorough, reviewing family medical history and reviewing previous procedures performed. I felt him to be very knowledgeable, professional, courteous, transparent and caring. He has recommended a consult with another neurosurgeon that he feels would be well suited to my particular case.
