I had pain in my right hip for two weeks and he explained a number of issues I had, gave me a cortisone shot, set up PT and a follow-up appointment in four weeks. Hopefully it all helps. Seemed very nice, competent and was patient with me.

Dr. Alavi was very pleasant with an engaging personality. He was thorough and took his time explaining what I must do to rehab my knee. I would definitely recommend Dr. Alavi. Since my condition is not very serious to begin with, my diagnosis was bursitis of the right knee, we did not have an extensive consultation.

My appointment went very well. They called and said I could come in early if I wanted. No wait for X-rays or Dr. appointment. Dr took care of my problem and was very nice and friendly. No complaints here.
