I just moved back to San Antonio from New York and was unsure where to look for a doctor, then I found Dr. Hussain. Best decision ever! He is wonderful and understanding and most of all he listens to you! Glad he is my doctor! Also the staff is so friendly and nice! Great place and I live across town but this place is worth the drive!

I like how he listened to all I had to say. Very respectful. And I really appreciate that he checked my ears, nose, throat, lungs.... I've had a few in the past that wouldn't do as much as he did.
