Dr. Ali is always kind and attentive, caring about my health and making sure he's getting the situation right.
I only was there today for testing. I did not see the doctor. But, I must say the nurse (Lisa) that performed my testing was superb. She made my visit most pleasant and painless.
Excellent care, patient education and concern!
He's an attentive doctor who listens too you
Professional, listened to my concerns, made relevant suggestions and he explained things in a way that was easy to understand.
The patient has dementia and wouldnt lay still for sonogram. We had a good telephone conference and he explained why cant acurately diagnose. Suggested consult regular cardiologist.
Dr Ali and Gina, NP were very helpful and I left feeling confident on my condition and future care. Medication changes/renewals were called in that day to my pharmacy. My next appt was scheduled easily with office staff.
Provides very good and thorough service.
Great communication and willing to listen and hear the patient concerns then addresses the issues and follow up with feedback
He is always pleasant and greet with a caring smile. He cares and concern about me and doing everything to find the problem. He is a good doctor to me
