Patient Reviews
Jul 12, 2024
Dr Azher knows her stuff, well educated and knowledgeable, explains, shows pictures, draws pictures. Been seeing her since 2019 after a wrong diagnosis from my primary Dr and a brain bleed that was overlooked in my MRI by two other doctors and the technician. Dr Azher is the best in her field as far as I’m concerned.
