    I like that there was more than one medical person in the room, each talking with each other and with me, going over the records carefully, as this was my first time having a consultation with the doctor that day. The nurses, the techs, the PAs were all very kind, listening, seemed intelligent, and curious.

    The first nurse who came into our room after we were taken back to see our doctor was very cold, very blunt, and I was not happy with her. Other than them, everybody in Dr. Riaz's office was wonderful. I also told Dr. Riaz how I felt. Thank you for the chance to respond.

    I saw an ad about Virtua having a device to help people with COPD. Unfortunately, I don't qualify. But he listen to my concerns and reviewed my file to see if anything else could be done (tests, etc). Dr. Riaz is an excellent doctor and I was very happy with the care that he and his staff provided.

    I am new to this group and the person who booked my appointment was exceptionally kind and diligent in trying to get me an appointment right away because I was having a problem. My own Dr. couldn't see me for over a week and told me to go to urgent care, which wasn't acceptable to me. So I would like to express my gratitude for her not giving up and searching until she found me an appointment for the next day. You should give her a raise. She is an outstanding employee and a terrific representative of your office.

    I am desperate to get a diagnosis for my chronic cough, throat congestion and uncontrollable phlegm buildup that has going on for years but getting substantially worse. Could my Barrette's esophagus, GERD or hiatus hernia have anything to do with my problem? I'm more interested in eliminating my current condition by getting to the root cause rather than all the medication I am currently using.
