He pays attention, asks you the right questions, you know, pay your attention to things that you wouldn't normally think of. And he's great. He listens. You feel careful and he's such an advocate, like, especially when you are hospitalized and the other doctors are not maybe listening to you when you call to him and let him know what's going on. He usually takes care of it. As recently, I was having some issues with my cardiologist not responding. He actually sent him a note directly himself. So that's the kind of care Dr. Azad provides. I love him and I would recommend him to any SQL cell patient I know. I think he's the best doctor out there. He deserves every penny he gets paid.","review_date":"2026-05-18"},{"body":"Dr. Azar is truly an incredible doctor.
