I’ve been seeing Dr. Motiwala for several months now. I am extremely impressed with her knowledge and dedication to matching human beings to medications.. As anyone knows that has changed medications, changing medications can be a scary thing.
Dr. Motiwala proceeded with this change slowly and with great concern for any side effects. I felt safe in the care of Dr. Motiwala and was able to successfully make this transition. I highly recommend Dr. Motiwala. She is a credit to her profession.
