      from Thomas 5.0 Stars - (2024-09-20)
  • "Very engaging. Extremely professional and provided a reassuring sense of the Drs. Thall, Zimberg and Aghalar team that has been assembled on my behalf. Candidly, Dr. Aghalar both confirmed the approach being taken collectively by the team and will be adding to the medications prescribed to enhance the effectiveness of the process. Importantly, I considered Dr. Aghalar as almost a positive second opinion rathan than a simple review without any considered input."
