Dr. Malika Ayana Stewart, MD, MPH

I  came by Dr. Stewart because my provider had retired with no notice and this lovely lady was now seeing her patients. First of all her bedside manner is like no other Dr. I have dealt with. Not once has she ever rushed out visit, spoken to me harshly or made me feel like I was making up a symptom. She notes everything to the point when you see her on your next visit she can recite exactly what happened and what you told her on your previous visit. She pays attention. She returns calls. I called nervous about labs results from my specialist and I called to ask her staff if I could make a telehealth appointment because I was nervous about what I saw and she just stepped in and took my call. No appointment, no bill, just a doctor who wanted to comfort her patient. She is the absolute best and I am so glad she is my doctor. She also has an excellent understanding of medications and what will work best for you. She reduced my medications by half of what the retired doctor had prescribed and my labs are better and I feel better.  I'll say it again, she is the best!

Dr Stewart helped lowered my blood pressure and my numbers . 

Malika was very attentive and actively listened when I told her my medical history. She made me feel comfortable and I felt taken care of when I left. 

I had a virtual appointment with Dr. Stewart because I was sick. She was extremely rude and immediately told me she would “NOT be prescribing me any medication”.  She very rudely told me to use OTC medication because she said I probably just had a cold and should “treat the symptoms”. When I explained how sick I had been and told her I had a lot of mucus, so much that even my pillows had mucus on them from the night before, she said, “show me the pillow then”. When I showed her the pillow, which to me is already unprofessional and weird that she would not believe her patient, she seemed to change her attitude, but she was still very dismissive of how sick I was and still am. I have been a long time patient of Dr. Medley. I will NOT be going back to Dr. Stewart after this horrible experience. Save yourself the trouble, find a GP that isn’t rude and dismissive.
