Patient Reviews
Dec 27, 2016
Dr. Alam is an exceptional physician. He went out of his way to make sure that I got the care I needed. He spent a large amount of time on the phone explaining the complexity of my situation to my insurance company and even called me during his off hours to provide me with up dates. He is very knowledgeable and compassionate. I recommend him very highly!!
