Dr. Sidani is my all-time favorite primary care physician. I feel that he really listens to my concerns and addresses them constructively and patiently. As a result I am making progress on some conditions that I have struggled with for years. For example, I have had trouble finding an effective medication and dose for my high blood pressure. Dr. Sidani listened carefully to my comments about effectiveness and side effects and helped me find the right medication, dose, and timing. Now I feel I finally have that condition pretty much under control.
