I saw Dr Arshad for an initial consultant and, after some tests, for a follow up. She was extremely personable and explained everything clearly and concisely. She also asked if I had any questions and took the time to listen to my concerns. All in all I was very happy.

Even though Dr. Arshad felt that some of my fertility challenges were out of her area, she helped me ten-fold. She was kind, she listened and I full-heartedly agree with the other positive comments left on this site. Her advice on thyroid and metabolism was very good.
