Patient Reviews
Jun 03, 2021
Dr. Iqbal is amazing! As well as Dr. Nguyen! Both of them are incredible! My life has been transformed and I am able to have a better quality of life! I had a hiatal hernia and he was able to identify it during my first conversation with him and he assured me it was going to be ok. My request was to have it at my home hospital, which his office was able to arrange and assisted me with all the listed requirements, as well as the specific accommodations I had previously requested. The communication at the Front Desk was incredible as well, as I called and sent e-mails, and the elite team always were able to follow thru. I feel this team of elite professionals needs to have some bright light on them, because they really have improved my life in so many ways! Prior to the operation, Dr. Iqbal came to see me b4 & after the surgery as well. He also spoke to my mom leaving her at ease. Thank you to all, but especially to Dr. Iqbal and Dr. Nguyen for your blessed hands. God bless you always!
