How likely are you to recommend Dr. Babaian?
I was referred to Dr. Babaian after my PSA numbers were higher than normal. After the results were back from the lab she called my to give me the results. She gave me the feeling she really cares. At my previous urologist I was told by the nurse practitioner that she would call. I am still waiting. I was extremely pleased with Dr Bahaian as my urologist.
