Very smooth experience. Everyone was polite and professional.
Dr Salik was prepared and knew all about my complicated history. He listened to me, educated me, and had empathy in moments I needed it. I feel lucky to be his patient.
Best doctor who cares of patients.
Was very prepared before he saw me. He explained everything step by step. He took his time with me. My wife had a lot of questions and he answered everyone. And he was teaching an intern explaining everything to her step by step. My wife and I liked him very much.
