Providence Patient
Very professional and easy to understand. Took his time to answer every question I had Highly knowledgeable
Providence Patient
Dr. Azad is a specialist so some of the questions are a little difficult to correctly answer. Specifically blood test. I schedule all of my a doctor visits as close together as possible. So when I saw Dr. Azad, I'd had a blood test with 2-3 weeks. He spent a great deal of time review my test results, even turning the computer screen around so I could see. One of my conditions is hypertension, so he took my blood pressure while I was seated. He waited a few minutes then ask me to stand for another test.He noticed (I didn't) that I was a little off balance when I stood up. Fortunately for me, he took a great interest in my balance and listen to how I fell in Pilates. As a result he reduced my blood pressure medication and asked that I take my BP at home and email him (and Dr. Vy Nguyen) my results. Based on those results I've discontinued one of my blood pressure medicines and I no longer feel light headed.He is a very caring physician and works as a team member with my internist and cardiologist to make sure I'm correctly diagnosed, prescribed and doing well. I recommend him to everyone who asks. I fell very fortunate to have him as one of my physicians.
