The staff is extremely kind, patient, and hospitable! Dr. Lalani is excellent, he is very gentle, kind, and intelligent. I am very blessed that he took my symptoms seriously and got me the necessary treatment to work to resolve my diagnosis. He can defuse tense situations and make the atmosphere more relaxed. I would rate the office, Dr. Lalani, and the nurses a 6 out of 5 stars if I could! I am grateful for the entire staff!

Excellent doctor, excellent bed manners. Takes his time to listen and gives a full explanation of your illness and the causes. My husband was his patient for more than 5 years and I have been his patient for more than 10 years. Best of the Best! The only thing that needs improvement with his office is to be able to talk to someone when you call and to wait 24 or 48 hours for someone to call you to make an appointment.

Dr. Lalani and staff were very courteous and I was very impressed with the doctors care. We went to his office expecting the worse and he assured us that that was not the case. I look forward to meeting with him after the MRI and other tests. I will highly recommend his services to anyone that will listen.

Doctor is great but wait time was annoying. Over 30 minutes in waiting room and another 20 minutes before seeing the doctor after brought back to the exam room

Dr Lalani helped when my previous pain “doctor”,whose name rhymes with sickler, dismissed me as a drug seeker because he wasn’t competent nor compassionate enough to help me. Dr Lalani displayed not only competence but compassion as well and immensely helped my bone cancer pain which allowed me to sleep for the 1st time in months. I would recommend him to anyone.
