"Dr. Rizwan or as my husband and I refer to her "The Riz" has been integral to my recovery from PTSD (personal trauma and war), Depression (lost ability to walk), and Anxiety. She is highly professional and personally approachable. I've seen other psychiatrists in the past but know I will only go back to her."

"I do NOT recommend Sophia Rizwan. This woman is not qualified to deal with patients. She may have a license, but does not possess skills to interact with human beings on a professional level. In my opinion, she does not possess the skills to interact with human beings on ANY level. She would be wise to choose another career path that does not involve interacting with human beings."

  • I did not provide a score of two. The score I provided was one. I would provide a zero if that were an option.

"The worst psychiatrist that I have ever seen. After the medication she prescribed (which had severe contradiction warnings with my other medications) caused terrifying hallucinations, she blamed the medications that I had been taking for months before seeing her. She then insisted that I stop taking all medications prescribed by her or otherwise immediately and insisted that I instead just take allergy medicine. These other medications are also known to have severe consequences for stopping suddenly. It’s OK she was playing with my wife concerned that that happened."

"This psychiatrist is the most uncaring, unsupportive, and unempathetic individual I have ever met. She spent her time with me pointing out all of the things I did wrong. In addition, she sounded condescending when I opened up about personal experiences of mine. She spent most of the appointment on her laptop without making direct eye contact and did not show she cared. My friend tried to make an appointment with her and was dismissed because she did not think she was "the best fit" when I feel it was due to her high needs. I do not think she deserves this practice and often does not talk well of her other patients. She is unprofessional and careless about her patients."

"My husband had dementia and was very hateful toward her. She was very kind, patient, and even playful with his demeanor while getting to the stages of his dementia. She worked hard to find medication that would work for him that didn’t compromise his other health issues and coordinated with his neurologist. If I ever need psychiatric services for myself, I would willingly be her client."

"Dr. Rizwan refused to continue my medication until I sought expensive and specialized therapy. Leaving a postpartum, bipolar, and suicidal mom without medication is not only negligent it should be criminal."

"I highly recommend Dr. Rizwan to anyone struggling with sleep issues. She solved an insomnia problem that I had lived with for years. Through a well-planned combination of medication and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I am now regularly sleeping through the night.
Dr. Rizwan is exceptionally knowledgeable and takes the time to explain her diagnosis in a way that is easy to understand. She provides a clear treatment plan, explains the path ahead, and is always encouraging throughout the process.
During appointments, she asks thoughtful, pointed questions while entering information into her computer. I see this as a positive because it ensures she captures accurate information and carefully reviews my data. She also follows each visit with a detailed email summarizing the discussion and outlining the next steps, so I always know exactly where we are headed.
Dr. Rizwan truly turned my life around after several previous doctors were unable to solve my insomnia. If you want real results from a sleep specialist, Dr. Rizwan should be your first choice."

"Dr. Rizwan was the absolute worst psychiatrist I have ever had to work with. She over medicated my daughter and humiliated her in the waiting room in front of other patients by saying “seeing you gives me PTSD”. Stay away from her!!!!"

"Dr Rizwan provides a safe, warm, and empathetic setting that allows my son to openly speak his thoughts. She has established connection with my son and makes my son laugh. My son looks forward to his session with Dr Rizwan."
