    I don't believe that anything could've been done better. The knowledge and concern for me was very evident. I was hoping for a complete answer to my problem, but I don't see where anything further could be done before I went back to my urologist. So thank you for the excellent service!

    Karishma - Dr. Malakar, has the utmost dedication to patient care and an innate ability to communicate on a very personal level regarding the issues and concerns Im facing. And at my age, these matters can mean the difference between enjoying life or merely living day-to-day. She makes me feel as if shes caring for amember of her own family, and that my concerns are her highest priority. I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate Dr. Malakar's dedication to my personal wellbeing.
