Dr. Asrari was one of the most detailed and caring physicians I have encountered. She took the time to go over every detail of my plan and provided extensive information to her resident, [staff]. We spend more than 2 hours together reviewing options and concerns. She contacted my oncologist during my visit since I was concerned about specific side effects of aromatase therapy. She was able to put me at ease. She is AMAZING!
