Rafay Atiq, MD 3130 North County Road 25A, Troy, OH 45373

"I have been seeing Dr. Atiq for almost 2, 1/2 years. He has continued to ignore my concerns and is always very condescending. When I come to my appointments, I always feel very rushed and feel like I am basically not allowed to explain what I’m actually feeling. Recently, I have completely shut down as I view him as a person that is there to just fill my prescriptions but not somebody that I can trust or talk to openly. He is a “doctor” who is in it for the money. Get the patients in, keep them there the shortest time possible for the appointment (AKA not listen to them at all) then send them on their way, doubting anything that they have thought about discussing. He is not a doctor he is a Fraud who happens to have a medial license"

"Dr. Atiq is a wonderful psychiatrist. He has always spoken to me throughout my stays at UVMC with respect and dignity, and always conducted himself with a great deal of compassion and an honest effort to care for and solve all the problems I've faced. My only complaint is that I have had some issues with some medications he prescribed, but after explaining my problems, he always took me off the medications or gave me a lowered dose which solved the problems. What's more, the Trazodone he prescribed also took care of my sleep issues tremendously."

"My son was under his care as impatient.My son was diagnosed with manic bipolar disorder...was told he was given physical and occupational therapy everyday there (6 days )which he only received one day the last day he was there. Dr Atiq was unaware of the neglect that was going on yet did nothing to correct circumstances and sent my son home on 7 medications . The Woman named "Lou " social worker "Donna " both very cold individuals 1 forcing us to take my son or leave him they will send him to homeless shelter ( on a walker wearing adult diapers).... the other would not help send my son to another skilled nursing facility due to " no other facility will take your son ,face it ,nobody wants to take anyone from a psych ward!!!"(Lou) I do not recommend this facility ,one Nurse "Kim " she was excellent and professional ,honest...as For Dr Atiq he released my son too early and to many meds. Ativan and Haldol was replaced with my alternative 5mg melatonin. Now 1 month later ,my son is only on 1 prescription with melatonin at night walking around the block even to the Library .showers and shaves himself ,very independent thanks to Jesus Christ"

"I was first treated by Dr Atiq inpatient at UVMC 15-16 yrs ago. At that time I found him cold and thought he wasn't listening to me. Since then he has treated me in crisis situations 3-4 times. One thing he consistently told me was that I will continue to struggle so long as I continue to self medicate. Of course I didn't want to hear it, thought it was rude of him and just an excuse for, "not curing me". The last time I saw him a few months ago I was near 1 year sober. He acted so proud of me, congratulated me. In that session I realized that he remembered conversations that we had 15 years ago. He was always listening. It was me who was resistant to change, me that wasn't listening. Me stuck in a cycle of self destruction. I believe that Dr. Atiq can come across cold. He will ask the hard questions. He is not going to give you warm fuzzies. He is an attentive thorough Dr. who gets straight to the point. He will see right through your bull. If you are all in and serious about your mental health Dr. Atiq is great."

"I have gone to Dr. Atiq for years. I cannot say enough praises for him. He is patient and kind. Willingness to listen. And definitely not in my case pushed pills . I highly recommend him to any prospective new clients."
