About Junaid Farooq, MD;
I am a hospitalist with specialized expertise in infectious diseases, dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to all my patients. My approach to patient care is centered on evidence-based medicine, ensuring that each patient receives the most current and effective treatment available. I believe in the importance of clear communication and teamwork, working closely with multidisciplinary teams to deliver personalized and holistic care.
I chose to be part of the Berkshires and BHS because of the community’s commitment to excellence in healthcare and the opportunity to work with like-minded professionals who prioritize patient well-being above all. The natural beauty of the Berkshires and the welcoming environment make it an ideal place to live and work, allowing me to balance my professional responsibilities with a fulfilling personal life.
In my spare time, I enjoy exploring the scenic trails of the Berkshires and engaging in continuing medical education to stay at the forefront of my field. I also run AI & Tech Startups along with an International Clothing Brand.
