Adel Malek, MD, PhD
Dr. Malek was kind, courteous, and friendly, which was greatly appreciated given the unknowns of my health. I respect his position as a neurosurgeon and, at the appointment, relied on his wealth of knowledge and years of experience that comes with the territory. He explained everything clearly and in terms that we’re easy to understand regarding the scan results that were up on the screen. It was also encouraging to learn of someone through a mutual friend who had seen Dr. Malek as a patient in the past and had only high regard for him.
