"I have been a patient of Dr. Malik for almost 10 years. She has always been professional, compassionate, and available. Recently, she suggested TMS for my depression and we are seeing improvements that were not possible with medication. She treats each patient as an individual and offers the best mixture of treatment protocols. She is an exceptional psychiatrist. "

"She is compassionate, professional, and knowledgeable. She takes time to explain treatment decisions and is available on short notice if issues arise. I have been seeing her for 9 years. Her staff is courteous and the social workers listen and provide support as needed. Overall, the practice is wonderful. "

"Dr Malik's office was previously located in Rockford, IL where I live. She moved to Elgin which is 56 miles away. There are very few doctors of her caliber in Rockford. I found her on-line and made an appointment based on a Google Review from a patient of hers who also lives in Rockford and now travels 56 miles to see her. She's easy going, a good listener and I feel I'm in very capable hands. And so, I too travel 56 miles to see her. She's the BEST!"
