Dr. Bukhari was one of the nicest doctors I’ve seen. He was concerned about my visit & really took the time to listen. I didn’t feel rushed, like my symptoms didn’t matter. I didn’t leave feeling like I needed a second opinion.

Dr. Bukhari - I have been under Dr. Bukhari's care for several years - for sleep apnea and pulmonary problems. He shows great concern and when I was unable to tolerate a specific treatment he worked with me trying others until I felt comfortable. I would definitely recommend him.

Very thorough. He asked me questions about things I never thought would have pertained to my asthma, but made sense after it was discussed. Dr. Bukhari explained what happens in asthma & what I was doing to feel better wasn't really working. I was very satisfied & happy to find a doctor who really wanted to find the root cause of my problem than to just treat.
