- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/18/2025
I found Dr. Waheed very personable and with a pleasant disposition. She reviewed my file and labs, asked relevant questions, and went over parts of my medical history. She listened to me (history, thoughts and concerns) and answered all my questions. We discussed upcoming procedures and, in advance, put a prescription order for an upcoming procedure. She even put in for an additional test that was not done previously. I found her thorough and I look forward to a good relationship regarding my health care.
