My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

During my ten years of hospital care experience, I have diagnosed and managed many chronic diseases and their complications. Now, as I transition to outpatient care, I am excited to focus my practice on preventive medicine. Whether it is preventing the disease or it’s complications, the key is always communication. 

Being the first female MDVIP-affiliated physician in the Tampa Bay area, I am committed to providing care that is based on my patients’ individual needs. The MDVIP model allows physicians to spend more time with each patient to be educators and advocates for our patients’ well-being. I hope to provide my patients with personalized care that is meaningful so they may reach their optimal health.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Syed

from Janet in FL March 15, 2024 for Fathima Syed, MD

When I started seeing Dr. Syed years ago, I was in terrible shape. My anti-depression meds weren't working, my RA and fibro were not under control, my anxiety was a mess, and I was having so much trouble with fatigue. I'm an emotional eater so because of all this, I had reached 260 pounds from a combination of not being able to do anything and binge eating because of how bad I felt, which of… See more

My niece, a high school science teacher, frantically called me when her daughter, Lyanna's preschool was going to close two weeks before school let out. I was able to go and help keep Lyanna so that she and her husband didn't have to miss work. The cold that was going around the preschool came home with Lyanna and we all got it. Lyanna and her parents had it for a few days but I… See more

We knew Dr Syed before she joined MDVIP. My wife was hospitalized after a stroke and Dr. Syed was serving as an intensivist on the neuro wing. Several intensivists visited my wife during her stay. Dr. Syed always spent time with my wife, clearly sincerely assessing her condition, taking time to discuss her situation with me. This was unlike the other intensivists who breezed in, cursorily… See more

Dr. Syed is truly a blessing to me. Since I’m a ‘senior citizen’, I’m genuinely hoping Dr Syed will be my Dr throughout my final journey home (which is probably many years from now).😊

I first met her when accompanying a friend, who was her patient, for some appointments. When I experienced how she treated my friend, I really wanted her to be my primary care…but i needed to go on a… See more

from Gordon in FL February 15, 2024 for Fathima Syed, MD

I truly believe that my doctor, Fathima Syed, is my guardian angel. Recently I had a very concerning medical condition that I thought was possibly an indication of a serious problem. I called Dr. Syed who asked me to come in the office that same day. After consulting with her, she concluded that I needed to see a specialist for this particular issue. Dr. Syed personally took it upon herself to… See more

from Ken in FL February 12, 2024 for Fathima Syed, MD

I don’t have a “story”
Simply said ….Dr Syed is the best PC Doctor I have ever had ! And at age 84, I have had many !

from Faye in FL February 11, 2024 for Fathima Syed, MD

I have been seeing Dr. Syed for several years now. I even moved 1 1/2 hours away but I refuse to change doctors. When a doctor gives you the most attention possible and knows what she is doing, what can I say-Dr. Syed is the best. If she is not sure of something, she helps you to fine another specialists with the help of her wonderful staff. She is so Kind and works with your family, helps to… See more
