    Dr. Ghushe is excellent identifying the patients anxiety issues and takes the time to explain everything. I also owe it to Dr. Ghushe who got through to me to quit smoking after 40 years. I was excited when I met with him earlier this week to tell him I hadn't hadn't smoked in over a year. He's an excellent dr and the team around him is amazing.

The doctor was immediately supportive and took time to make sure he knew my history when it was the first time meeting me!
