This has been the worst doctor's visit I have even been to. Dr. Zafar was condescending, arrogant, and completely dismissed all of my symptoms and concerns. She did not asked for bloodwork, didn't do any kind of check up and just wanted to give me iron boost shots to see "what happens". When I told her that I was allergic to certain dyes and chemicals, she asked me to bring Benadryl to the next appointment and take it before she gave me the shots to see if I "truly" had an allergic reaction. She even wanted to give me B12 shots which I'm allergic to. Everytime I asked a question she gestured with her fingers to "shut up" and shush me since I didn't know what I was talking about. Absolutely the worse bedside manner and experience with doctor I have ever had. Do yourself a favor and please avoid this doctor at all cost.
