During this visit, routine office procedures and diagnostic tests may be conducted as needed, such as EKG, vascular and general ultrasound studies, nerve conduction studies (NCS), electroencephalogram (EEG), sleep studies, MRI, and more. This helps create the necessary diagnostics and data for a proper treatment plan. Dr. Abubakr’s state-of-the-art office technology allows most diagnostics to be performed on-site during the first visit, with results typically ready within a week. - The Neurological Consultation is performed by Dr. Abubakr, who will evaluate all diagnostics and data to create your treatment plan. If needed, depending on your condition, he will provide “STAT” or “Wet” (immediate) readings. Dr. Abubakr will explain and guide patients toward an appropriate and evidence-based treatment plan.

The office is extremely disorganized
Verified patient
I would avoid. It was unclean, very disorganized, and unprofessional. Part way through my intake, a doctor barely knocked and waltzed in while I was half nude for an EKG with a tech and then stood there with the door half open while I yelled "Excuse me, could you close the door?" Tech didn't blink or do anything.
