All of my experiences dealing with the Cleveland Clinic were positive ones. Everyone was helpful and pleasant and I could not have found a better doctor than Dr. Latifi. He took a lot of time to explain everything to me and take my health history and I feel I could not be in better hands. I look forward to dealing with him in the future and feel confident he has my best interest at heart. I know I have found the best doctor for me and my health.

I could not say enough good things about Dr. Latifi. I have never had a doctor take so much time to make sure that I understood what asthma is, what causes it and how best to treat it for me personally. I first noticed breathing problems when I was 13 years old and it was diagnosed as asthma. I am now 70 and Dr. Latifi literally went through every incident I could remember through all of those years to better understand just what we were dealing with. I feel sure that I am in the best possible hands.
