Definitely, yes! Dr. Mushtoq explained silent reflux to me after doing a thorough ENT exam. I learned through his explanation and viewing the video of my throat what was happening to me these past 9 months. He never used a computer himself, but always looked at me. There was a nurse doing the transcription. I will see him again in a few months. I am so relieved to have an explanation of my symptoms.

What a great professional. Today was my first appointment and Dr. Mushtaq may well have saved my life with his assessment and diagnosis. They do not make physicians like this anymore. Excellent physician and excellent staff. I could not offer a beet endorsement based on a first appointment.

Dr. Mushtaq is a fantastic Dr. He is extremely knowledgeable and caring and a good listener. The fact that he is triple specialty certified is amazing and that helps you know you are truly in good hands and that you are being seen by someone who is at the top of his field(s). I saw him after a horrible experience from a procedure done somewhere else and he helped me with what had been going on after and did a biopsy from my face for me. He also did a perfect biopsy with no scarring! It was a scary time for me and I was glad he was there to help me. I highly recommend Dr. Mushtaq, he is clearly brilliant (a dermatologist I saw told me Dr. Mushtaq was a genius and recommended him to me and I am so glad he did) and his front office help who helped get me in were absolutely kind and fantastic as well. Great office all around thank you!

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Mushtaq. He was very considerate and did an excellent job explaining my condition, its implications, and his proposed treatment for it. My first operation with Dr. Mushtaq was to have a mass removed from my salivary gland, but despite the size of the mass, it is very difficult to tell. He took great care to both preserve the facial nerve and mitigate the scarring around the incision. I was so impressed that I returned to have my deviated septum fixed, which was also excellent work, insofar as I am concerned. His office staff were also very helpful.
