"Dr. Ghaffari went above and beyond for me. As a 28 yr old with an incidental finding of pulmonary nodules and a mass, it was scary. He took the time to explain everything. He even made room in his schedule just for me. He definitely made me feel like a person and not a number. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this man. He is an angel in medicine. "
