Dr. Majid and her staff are very professional, efficient and caring. The whole process was seamless from setting up a consult, filling out paperwork on their website, staff scheduling appointments and finally seeing the doctor. They gave me the option for a tele visit and with my hectic schedule, it worked out great. I’m glad to have found a practice that cares about my health and well being and I’m super excited to see the results and be on the journey of healthy living. I recommend anyone looking for ways to lose weight and be healthy to reach out to Dr. Majid and her team.

11-28-22Today I was really nervous when I walked in the weight loss and wellness center but after talking with Dr. Majid and her staff the nervousness started fading away. I love the fact of having a nutritionist that would assist you along your journey. They answered my questions that was really concerning to me and was worm and welcoming. I decided to have the sleeve done because I’ve tried for over five years or better to loose this weight and I’m ready to get off all these medications, just sick and tired of being sick and tired. So excited

Dr Majid is amazing! I just had a Gastric Band over Bypass removed less than a week ago and feel the difference already. She saved my life. I had an esophagus measuring only 1/2 inch in diameter to swallow food which was slowly killing me without even knowing. I knew I had issues keeping anything down but did not realize how serious. Besides all the adhesions and scar tissue in my stomach and esophagus. Thank you Dr Majid for basically saving my life! Now onto healing my body and getting back on the correct nutrition plan.

In our new culture of how we “see” our physicians, this center has gone the extra mile to ensure patients are well informed. I encourage anyone on the fence about getting healthy and starting a weight loss journey to contact this center. Remember you need to take care of yourself but you can’t always do it alone. My advice for whatever it is worth, make an appointment today you are not going to be disappointed. Staff very kind. Physician Assistant and Physician stellar.

Dr Majid is an excellent and dedicated Physician.Her dedication to her patients is unparalleled!!!I came from another Dr’s office that did not follow through with my insurance. With Meritain Insurance, to gain approval persistence is necessary. Dr. Majid took Meritain on, after I had had denials. Her staff called everyday and she called for a physician to physician consult. It seemed like an impossible feat, but I am 1 week post surgery,As far as Dr. Majid’s ability. An Excellent Surgeon that is triple board certified, wonderful bedside manner and listens to her patients,MT-patient

Okay, I was thinking I really seriously need to get the weight off, but I decided during Covid-19 lockdown!!! So I have virtual visits like once a month. Prior to open heart surgery, I was around 265 or so. Very depressed and barely able to move around. My weight today was 242, not so depressed and moving a little easier. Not as great as surgical options but I'm quite pleased with myself.

I am so thankful for everything that dr.majid and Liz have done for me, as we all know this is a life changing decision of course for the best but it can be a little scary thinking of going under the knife. There wasn’t a moment that they didn’t make me feel comfortable and confident about the hole process, Me and my family are verry greatful for the weightloss and wellness center😊 I will highly recommend anybody that wants to change their life and health to go and pay a visit to this awesome staff of angels. Thank you again Dr majid LIZ and the hole staff thank you.

I actually found Dr Majid’s office from a search with my insurance company. after making an appointment, I was very impressed with the amazing beside manner that we were provided I don’t think I’ve experienced a Dr with patience, that took time to provide us with the answers to our questions without looking at her watch. I would definitely recommend Dr Majid you would not be disappointed. The staff was very nice and professional. The office is very clean and calm.

Dr. Majid is kind and asks probing questions, and takes the time to LISTEN to your responses!! Her practice is more quality over quantity. My first visit was a telehealth and I expected to be rushed off the phone. How refreshing to report that it was 45 minutes because she actually cares about my health and me as a person!! She LISTENS to you. She CARES!! I am so glad I found her. I feel hopeful for the first time in years!! Thank you Dr. Majid!!!

This review is my honest opinion perhaps someone felt or feels the same way I did. Praying that if this happened to you don't give up. Stay with Dr. Majid. "SHE REALLY CARES ABOUT HER PATIENTS"I do realize some Dr. are not good with communication or bedside manners but are excellent in their field.Staff was lack with follow up. I was really excited about the weight loss journey, my initial visit was not as I expected. Dr. Majid was in my opinion preoccupied I felt like I didn't get her full attention. I was going to look for another Dr., but after prayingtalking to the psychologist, nutritionist and my pcp.I decided to stay with her and continue my weight loss journey. The key thing is to pray before you make an decision. I'm Looking forward to this journey with Dr. Majid.Lesson learned from this Everyone has an off day. I'm Happy with my choice to not overthink the initial visit.Prayer changes things.As of today the Dr. Majid and her staff are great with communications and follow up.Praying that this helps someone. To not give up. Dr. Majid is the best ❤God Bless

My name is Madeline Butler just to clarify that because I see this is coming up under my daughters log in but anyway, I met Dr. Majid in 2018 as she was referred to me from my primary doctor. The reason they referred me to her because I had a lot of things wrong with me health wise, not only do I have Lupus but I had high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep apnea and the list goes on. I’m so thankful that I did get the chance to meet her because this was being done for health reasons not to go by a lil red dress or out of vein I did it cause I was young and sick. I had my surgery in July 2018 and I no longer have the things I mentioned before (of course I still have Lupus) but all the other things was just to much on my body. I thank GOD for Dr. Majid even a year later she still keeps in touch with me and she truly cares about her patients. Her heart is truly to help those fight obesity and you don’t find to many doctors that take there time and are truly in love with there work. If anyone is reading this post and your contemplating having surgery do it, it has totally changed my life for the better and I had the best doctor, which even under maintenance she with me every step of the way. Pls do your homework because you have the best teacher right in front of you and if I can go thru this with all my medical problems I know you can too! Love u Dr. Majid for caring about me so much that you’d probably saved my life. God Bless you and keep up your positive and passionate work to help ppl you truly do it from the heart and not for the money.
