Patient Reviews
Apr 28, 2023
He is very kind. He explains things so well. Takes time to keep you safe during your journey with neurosarcoid. I'm in a remission because of Dr. Mazzawi, Dr. Sankoff and the sarc clinic. We need to be proud of Drs. like this. I can't explain how grateful I am to him and also my Partner Paul. Today I walked for an hour a little dizzy at first then here I did it all week long. Walking and turmeric helped a lot with the inflammation, and I swear the Prozac.
