I am extremely fortunate to have Dr. Tarik as my doctor. He is meticulously familiar with my records, pays attention to the ones that needs improvement and also discusses where I am doing well. He is amazingly very thorough with his advice, which makes me know that he is treating both, the person and the illness, which makes me feel I am being well taken care of.
