I travelled 1.5 hours to see dr Chahal and it was worth every minute. I've never been to a dr that is so kind and thorough. He took his time to explain the possible condition, the blood tests he is ordering and what each hormone is he will be testing, the next steps as well as the medication. An excellent physician
