I was referred by my primary care doctor to Dr Asfar about two months ago and have seen him twice ever since. Dr Asfar has been very kind, responsive, thorough, and professional. He spent time going over details, and answered all my questions in a genuine and friendly manner which has been profoundly impressive. I would like to recommend Dr Asfar to all patients in need of help in his areas of expertises in rheumatology
