I am a person who is always visiting doctors but I have not had the joy or pleasure of meeting a doctor like Abdus Samad Soudagar. I believe that he cares for his patients as they are as people, not just as numbers, in many other cases. On occasions they have treated me like just another number, that is, the next one without giving importance, but Abdus Samad Soudagar, MD would say that if you want to meet your patient I went with fear but came back confident that I am in the best hands with Abdus Samad Soudagar, MD So thank you so much

Dr. Soudagar is confident and skilled in his field and makes a patient feel well taken care of. he does not do unnecessary procedures. I could probably give better answer when I'm feeling better. This is all I can think of right now.

This was my first time meeting him as I was under the care of a APRN prior to my procedure. He was kind, he listened, and ensured all the testing was appropriate and done in my best interest. He had wonderful bedside manner, and made me feel as if I had met him before despite it being our first encounter.
