Patient Reviews
Jul 27, 2023
My initial visit was in 2015 when Dr Afshar performed some vein procedures on me. Recently I was experiencing some pain in the same leg and immediately wanted to rule out any vein issues so I made an appointment with Dr Afshar. The staff performed all the necessary tests. Dr Afshar reviewed everything and reassured me that everything was okay. The office is immaculate; the staff is very professional. I would recommend Dr Afshar and this office to anyone who is having any kind of vein issues.
