5.0 star star star star starDr. Masood is highly professional, very thorough, takes time to explain her approach, demonstrates interest and care toward me, appears incredibly intelligent and willing to search for answers. I feel grateful to Dr. Masood for the multiple times we have discussed my specific health issues concerning the Covid Vaccine. The time that Dr. Masood has generously extended to me has allowed me to get vaccinated feeling supported especially if I should run into trouble concerning my allergies and/or immunology issues. Feeling safe and cared for is important to my overall satisfaction in continuing with a doctor; Dr. Masood fits this qualification for me! Thank you.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Masood took the time to look through my chart and compile all other doctor notes to get a better look at what I was dealing with. She did extra research to learn more about a recent diagnosis and further how to help me and spent time trying to help me figure out the WHY component, which I greatly appreciate. She was a breath of fresh air and her bubbly nature was contagious and just what I needed at a time when things are overwhelmingly stressful from a medical standpoint! She shares my same love for research and getting to the bottom of understanding how things work and WHY they occur and you can tell how passionate she is about what she does from her excitement when speaking about it. My case is particularly complex and I have a lot of extraneous factors at play with multiple comorbid diagnoses. She has been wonderful throughout the process of trying to help me figure out the reasoning behind the painful reactions I've been having. When one thing comes up inconclusive or without answers, she tries looking at it from a different perspective and tries something else. She had me laughing and I cannot tell you the last time I found myself laughing at the doctor! I appreciate her diligence, compassion and willingness to help me problem solve and do what she can to get everything sorted out. She didn't rush anything but was efficient and productive in everything she was working to sort through in my chart. I am extremely saddened that I have finally found a handful of doctors who are wonderful and determined to help me figure out that WHY component, and I'm going to be moving out of state later this year. Doctor's like Dr. Masood are the ones who would be enough to convince me to stay and make it worth it!
