Dr. Malek was very easy going. He checked my right knee over and took a brief history of my ending up in his office. He gave me some options and scheduled for an MRI.
I felt like he rushed on me, but I highly recommend dr Farbod. He's a great doctor. He helped my husband out a lot with his knee pain.
