He is always a pleasure to visit with. As long as he never gives me good news I love him
My excellent Pulmonologist just retired and I now have Dr. Yakoob. 1st visit went excellent, he listened to my concerns and asked many questions. His personality is calm, inviting, respectful and compassionate. As this was only my 1st visit with him, it could not have went any better. As time goes by, I will update
On time and efficient
All good , great Doctor
