5.0 star star star star starShe was great! Dr. Rahmani took time to explain everything that was going on with my vision. She took the time to not only view my films, but she explained to me what she was seeing and what it possibly meant. That resulted in additional views with contrast and she asked if I'd like to handle that today, which I really appreciate. Dr. Rahmani has a great bedside manner.

External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
