I’m amazed by how much fragrance there is in this office. From the office staff, to the restrooms and hallways, to the practitioners themselves. A doctor’s office should know better, especially one that works with people who have breathing issues! The staff are great otherwise though. Just please, go fragrance-free!!

I wish he wouldn’t wear strongly scented products. It wasn’t as bad this last time, but I could still smell it. As an asthmatic and chemically sensitive patient, these things are very important to me and many others.

He examined me as well as some of his staff. I was taken back by his attentiveness! He laughed at my “husband” jokes! Wish he could be my primary MD!

Prior review said Dr. Gilani is excellent. But not really excellent when you are in your grave. Communication skills are lacking. I would definitely NOT recommend!
