Dr Salek has been my Dr for more than 20 yrs and I’ve never had a bad visit. He & his staff are caring, professional and thorough and have always gone the extra mile to work with me. Dr Salek has the best bedside manner of all the doctors I’ve worked with and he actually listens and works with me in a collaborative fashion.

He kept my mom and dad with us for many years more I believe as he was always there to bring them out of near death situations and he saved my sin from sure death in helping us move him to a facility that had the proper equipment to take care of him. I am forever grateful and he takes good care of me I can say my family and me truly love him. Thank you Dr. Salek, Sue Milling
