Review for Dr. Waheed

I met with Dr. Waheed for a consult from a referral to determine the source of some of my symptoms. He was incredibly thorough in his testing and made me much less nervous throughout the appointment. He listened carefully and really made me feel he was as interested in finding a solution as I was....
