Dr Afroz saw lab results that needed follow up and she notified my pcp, who should have seen the issue sooner. As a result I was referred to another specialist who fixed me all up. But it was Dr Afroz who picked up on it and followed through. She is thorough and a good communicator. I highly recommend her.
