Enver Lavanjee
I had a great first time experience with the Podiatrist Taariq. He was professional, thorough, and took the time to explain my condition clearly. The initial treatment felt effective, and I felt comfortable throughout the appointment. The receptionist is also friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing foot care.
Sue Duplessis
I went to see Dr Taariq today for my ingrown toenails, my what a pleasant experience from the receptionist to seeing him. He did something minor & pain free in the rooms, to alleviate my pain, while I get authorization from my medical aid, to perform a more permanent solution. I could not be more happy with my first experience and look forward to seeing them again.
