She is so kind and knowledgeable about my condition and made me feel very comfortable having the surgery.

Review for Dr. Schultz

Dr. Ghuman is very thorough and actually listens to you as a patient. She is personable and therefore, very easy to talk to about any condition, fears, or concerns. She doesn’t just give “by the book advice”; she tailors it your specific needs and does so in easy to understand wording.
