Omar Ali, M.D.
My appreciation for Dr Ali and his co-Dr's as well as the entire staff are extremely top shelf professional health care providers that provided care i flew halfway around the globe to receive. Bottom line they all saved me from certain catastrophic health issues in the near future. "Thank you" doesn't really meet the level required but I'll just leave it at that.

Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
Dr Denlinger was right on the money about addressing the problem. He has always been very good at listening and understanding. I’ve been seeing him for a few years and do not want to change doctors. I feel he knows my issues and is very good at addressing them. That way I leave feeling good about my visit. There is just one thing. He never listens to my lungs or heart. I’ve been known to have upper respiratory problems ending up in the hospital. I also have a COPD and a heart murmur. I would like him to check those two things in the winter or feel my COPD is flaring up. I very much appreciate his help. At the age of [AGE] he has been good.
