Patient Reviews
Jul 26, 2018
Dr, Dhakal took care of me when I had a TIA and he is fantastic. I would have scheduled an appointment with him if he was in a practice, but he told me he wasn't at the time. He was the Neurological Medical Director at Wesley Hospital and he provided excellent care for me.
