I'm glad I came to see Dr. Zaidi, after feeling apprehensive about getting a third opinion. It seemed like it would be searching for the proverbial needle in a haystack, but I was wrong. I got clear and convincing answers about my real condition, and the solution couldn't be clearer, now. I'm going to focus on those solutions and give it my best to heal myself the best that I can, before something else goes wrong. Although he was late to my appointment, there was this young lady who went over my MRI and findings with me, in detail. Including the recommended treatment, prior to seeing the good doctor. I told her I was quite impressed with her knowledge and awareness of my situation as she was leaving. I feel as though I could have left with the knowledge she had given, without actually seeing the doctor, now that it's done. Although he did give some good advice that made me feel worlds better about my condition. Thank you Dr. Zaidi and your staff for seeing me.
