Patient Reviews
Jul 26, 2023
He's like the heart-throb version of Patch Adams, armed with medical knowledge and an unbeatable sense of humor. From the get-go, Dr. Assad made me feel like we were BFFs catching up at a stand-up comedy show. And let me tell you, he knows how to diagnose your heart and tickle your funny bone at the same time! During my consultation, I swear I heard my heart giggling with glee. Not only is he an expert in his field, but he's also an absolute wizard at easing your worries. Forget the boring medical jargon; he'll explain things to you using hilarious analogies and clever puns that make even heart palpitations sound like a punchline! You know you've found a gem of a cardiologist when you meet him
