I think Dr Haj is just super. He always has a smile when he greats you plus he always asks about my grandson I had told him about him a few years ago. So sweet to remember all the stuff I tell him. Just like being with your best friend.. He is the best.

Dr Haj went above and beyond my expectations for a Drs visit. I'm happy to wait if he's running behind because I know he's giving the same amazing care to another patient who needs it. Dr Haj treats me with respect and kindness. He always discusses options and future plans. I won the lottery when I became Dr Haj's patient
