I was OVERJOYED with my results and super appreciative of the time and effort the doctor put in. During every visit, he listening and addressed my concerns. During the procedure, he was super gentle and spoke to me every step of the way. I am sad to learn Dr. Vij is leaving. I would love to keep staying under his care. I could not have asked for a better doctor.
