I met with Aziz once. He seems to be pretty chill, knowledgeable, and was answering questions. He printed me out some information about my situation. I like the guy. I think it's cool that he explains things to you in a manner that doesn't make you feel like an idiot if you do not know medical terminology. So I will see Aziz again. I'm very, very critical of doctors because I also work with them all day long. So he gets a thumbs up from me.
