I really like Dr. Mushtag! He is caring and easy to talk to, Does not rush, and shows much personal interest...Too bad most doctors are not like him. My only complaint is I didnt know how to spell his name and it seems impossible to call his office, They put you through a nationwide general info but not the office you wanr to reach!
