Meet Dr. Saleem I. Malik
I have been practicing child neurology/epilepsy for over 20 years, and still, the best part of my job is that every day I get to meet amazing kids. Even before medical school I knew I would practice pediatric medicine.
I'm very passionate about treating epilepsy in children. Many of the families I see travel from far away to seek help for their children. And whether they come from near or far, there's nothing more gratifying than seeing hope on the faces of parents whose children have difficult to treat epilepsy.
I'm board certified in pediatrics, child neurology, clinical neurophysiology and epilepsy.
I have two boys at home who and I enjoy spending time with them every day. In addition to my family, traveling and racquetball are my favorite pastimes.

The nurse and doctor we wonderful. I felt that he took his time in asking my daughter her symptoms with her episode, then asking me what I saw. She is 12 so she very much likes to be heard. And that is important to us. He was thorough, and took time explaining in a way we understood. Ordered more tests that help us feel at ease going forward.

Dr Malik has been our daughter's neurologist for almost 13 years now and has shown compassion, and always communicate new medications including side effects and always respect our decisions with regards to management of seizures. We appreciate that a lot that we are being heard as parents and primary caregivers of our daughter.

(Patient) is transitioning to adult care and Cook Children's epileptologists have left giant shoes to fill in the next phase. We are sad to be leaving.

Dr. Saleem Malik was absolutely amazing. He had such compassion for my child. I was so impressed with our visit. I could feel he really cared about my son and he completed a very thorough assessment. My husband and I were blown away by the quality of the visit.

Dr. Malik will always be such a highly respected and enjoyable physician for us. My son is severely special needs and yet Dr. Malik acts like he's just a normal child. That means a lot by itself. On the other side he makes sure to ask questions, even asking if I think something needs to change and discussing it with me pros and cons. We've been with him for years and he's always been thorough and makes me feel like we are the only patient important because he gives that much of his attention.
