Every appointment with Dr. Salem is a life changer for me. He's helped broaden my understanding of wellness and self care. My health is in great hands, and I'm grateful for Dr. Salem's tireless dedication and professionalism.
Verified patient
Dr.Salem was great and very relatable. He is a personable man who seems like he cares about his clients. I felt comfortable in the space and the office was clean and quiet. Although the appointment was swift and the doctor asked questions, the physical exam was not as thorough as it should be. There were some key components missing from the exam. I'm not sure if this is a common practice, but I wish the whole examination was included in my appointment.
Dr Salem was great, super nice and welcoming to a new patient. Found something during my physical that had been skipped over by previous doctors which just shows his attention to detail. Highly recommend!

Booked an appointment on zocdoc and arrived 10 minutes before my appt to knock and ring the door bell many times, call 5 and then finally listen to the answering machine to hear that they are out of office Aug 18-27 and my appt was today the 25th of August. How did I even make the appt? I’m confused. I took an uber there and back so now I’m out $50 for nothing. They sent me so many reminders for the appointment leading up to today just for me to get stood up.
