I have a rare muscle disease, have been to a good number of doctors in the last 10 years and Dr. Al-Lahham was the first one who was able to tell me what I have, where does it come from and help me understand all about it without any hesitation. He is very caring, kind and professional.

Dr Al-Lahham, checked me out with an EMG and determined my problems must be sports related. Didn't seem to matter that I have never played any sports. He did not provide any help, just said he didn't see anything with an EMG and sent me back to my primary doctor. Since then I have been diagnosed with MS, no thanks at all to Dr Al-Lahham. It was expensive and a waste of time. I wish he would have been caring, listening and compassionate, but that wasn't the case.

He took time to explain and answer all my questions. I walked out and had more questions and he just took me to a room again and answered them. Very kind and comforting. Staff very attentive too.
