    He was very patient and friendly. I was nervous but he took time to explain the surgery and helped quite my anxiety. The surgery was on my chin and the scar is minimal.

    Dr Dowlati is very busy with over load but well worth waiting for because he is VERY SKILLED in his profession. I have more than confidence in his ability. We are lucky to have him on staff.
