She was such a nice Dr. She answered all of my questions. I'm looking forward to have the surgery when I was very hesitant about the surgery. After talking to her she told me she want me to get physical therapy to build my core up. And she even encouraged me to stop eating sweets no pasta just protein and veggies no sweets no rice which i love but no rice for me. She need my A1C to be down before the hip replacement in December. I'm going to do it. Thank you Dr. SULEIMAN see you in December
