Review for Dr. Dastgir

Everyone was very sweet and attentive. My Doctor is the best you could ever have. I don’t think I can handle another prep. I may not ever see my doctor again. My doctor is wonderful but , I don’t think I can take the prep.

Review for Dr. Dastgir

Although I did not see Dr. Lopez, I saw his P.A. Tatianna(? spelling). She reviewed my Xrays taken before entering the office, explained what the diagnosis and treatment options were and then administered the treatment. All side effects were also explained. Very satisfied with the experience.
