Review for Dr. Deukmedjian
I was told I needed surgery, so I came in for a second opinion with Dr. Ahmadian. He immediately put my mind at ease. He did advised me not having surgery right away. AMAZING. He recommended an alternate course because it's not needed at this time. I really value his opinion. What a caring...
