Patient Testimonial

Dr. Wani is great.

by E.D

We first used him for my children and then when I needed an ENT, he provided excellent care. His office is fast and efficient and during COVID-19, I wasn’t sitting in the waiting room with other sick people. They work hard to meet your appointment time. Very well run office.
