I have been with Dr. Hussain for about 7 years. I don't need to see him in person every year. But what he has offered is The American Lung Association offers free CT. Scans to former smokers. I go in yearly, and every year has been clean. Not this year. I can honestly say that Dr. Hussain has saved my life. He has been right on top of all my testing, and is readily available through mychart.

From having a sleep study ordered and having no explanation about what I needed to do between scheduling and authorization, just a terrible experience. Front office Staff was rude and unhelpful. Orders were not put in and they kept telling me I needed to get authorization which I didn't. This place is terribly unorganized and a nightmare to get things done in a timely manner
