“Dr. Panjrath is truly a unique individual. He is very knowledgeable and incredibly patient. He takes whatever time is necessary to explain things and answer all questions. And on top of all this, he is extremely conscientious in following up with patients via phone and email. Without a doubt, my experience with Dr. Panjrath is best I have had with any doctor in over 60 years. Every doctor can learn something from Dr. Panjrath.”
