Dr. Vaezi is wonderful. He listened, took his time discussing options, procedures and the treatment plan he felt would be best. I cried tears of joy and relief after my appointment. A previous dr had been seen, at a different well known hospital, and I felt dismissed by the doctor I saw at this other hospital. Dr Vaezi was caring, explained what our next step would be and he listened to me. I felt so safe under his care, you have an amazing doctor and I will continue to drive from GA to see him and be under his care.
