Apr 17, 2021
Visited Dr.Assaf yesterday after a couple years not seeing him. My skin condition has progressively gotten worse. I was really at the end of the rope not knowing how much more I could take and the care they gave me was wonderful. Sarah the nurse was so sweet and compassionate and listened so intently then Dr was the same. Spent much time. Very caring soft spoken man. Just a great experience. Started me on some new medicine which I feel hopeful about. Thank you so much for helping me!!!
