Dr. Jafri is by far the best physician I have had the privilege to have on my care team. He is exceptionally thorough and listened to my concerns for us to collaboratively make a decision suited for me for my care plan. He made the worst diagnosis of cancer seem manageable. (side note- I love that he advocated to have water in the rooms for patients as a measure to provide comfort. True act of kindness)
