I was very pleased with Dr. Zafar and his staff. He gave me a diagnosis and began treatment immediately. He also explained what could be done if the boot does not resolve the tendonitis. I’m very glad that Dr. Kukunoor recommended Dr. Zafar. I would refer anyone to him who is in need of quality foot care.
