Dr. Khurshid was kind, empathetic, and thoughtful. Although my condition was something he sees often, he did not dismiss my concerns. He listened carefully to my questions and explained everything to me in a way that left me feeling much more at ease than when I arrived. Not only was he prompt in beginning the appointment, but he walked me out to the waiting room to show me where to check out at the end, rather than just pointing to an exit. Although a small gesture, I was impressed by this care and attention.
