Thank you Sir. It is almost a year now while taking consultation from you regarding my phycological problems. I still remember when i came 1st time in your clinic, I was the person who lost all hopes and was thinking that all the things are finished now. After one year of treatment from your end, Now i can say that I am completely changed now . You understood my problem , your behavior without judgement was main support during my recovery. My life has been changed now . Now i am able to understand regarding what is important in life. Now I able to understand each and every word and action you told during my recovery. Above all you guided me to place my thoughts away from my identity . Thank you sir for your Love and support. You understood my emotional pain. For myself taking treatment from you was one of my best decision . For all who are reading my feedback , i just to mention that just trust the process and follow each and every action guided by Dr . Farooqui Sir. Phycological treatment takes time . Just follow the guidelines and make efforts from your end. Thank you Dr Farooqui Sir from deep core my heart.

He is incredibly kind, friendly, and understanding, always calm and composed during sessions. He explains concepts clearly and asks smart, thought-provoking questions that encourage deep reflection. What I appreciated the most is that he guided me as a human being, not just as a patient, showing genuine care and compassion throughout. He creates a very open and non-judgmental space and even takes the time to educate the whole family.
I have been seeing Akram Sir for therapy over the past 4 months, though I have consulted other professionals over the last 3 years. In just 4 months, he helped me identify and diagnose my bipolar mood disorder, guided me through starting the right medication, and provided support that has genuinely improved my well-being. Please don’t hesitate to visit him and take care of yourself as you will be in safe, supportive hands.
Special mention to Rahul, whose warmth makes the experience more complete. He takes care of all appointments and bookings, ensuring you don’t forget your sessions.
He is patient, follows a plan, and very professional.
Unlike other doctors who are in a hurry, Dr. Owais Akram Farooqui takes time and listens to patients, which really matters.
Dr. Owais Akram Farooqui was very patient and kind, understood my issues well, and provided a clear diagnosis. He shared helpful CBT techniques for my anxiety and OCD, supported me with IBS, and taught me Muscle Relaxations and Visualization techniques that helped me calm down. Highly recommended.
The consultation with Dr. Owais Akram Farooqui was disappointing and not fruitful. I never felt I was speaking to an experienced senior professional, *** ** *** *********** **** ** **** ** ****** **** **** ** ****** ** ******* *** *********

I have been seeing Dr. Farooqui for nearly six months now, in order to address multiple issues. Throughout my sessions, he demonstrated a remarkable ability to help me understand and deal with my problems effectively. Dr. Farooqui is incredibly friendly and open-minded, creating a comfortable environment for open discussions. I didn’t feel the need to hide things from him and he encouraged me to open up without sounding or being judgemental.
One of the standout aspects of his approach is that he doesn't sugarcoat things. Instead, he explains them logically and clearly, which I found very helpful. Thanks to his guidance and techniques, my anxiety has significantly decreased, and I've been doing very well recently. Therapy doesn’t work in a week, it took me a few months to get where I am now so I would recommend giving therapy some time.
Along with this, his assistant , Mr Rahul is also very diligent. I dont have to worry about forgetting session dates and timings as he always keeps me updated!
I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Farooqui to anyone seeking a skilled and compassionate therapist. A big thankyouu to him for being kind and patient with me.
