    Have recently had several appointments at various Johns Hopkins clinics and I have to say this provider was fantastic. I felt like I was guiding next steps (with his expertise of course). I appreciated the time spent with me and the conversation we had about my care.

    Dr Maruf was great. Conversations with my doctors are as important to me (if not even more so!) than the tests and procedures they perform. Dr Maruf listened to my concerns, engaged me at my level of understanding and experience related to my condition, and showed a great amount of empathy. A fabulous doctor to have on your team!
