    Dr. Salem is a wonderful doctor who checks on you and your health consistently, whether in office or in hospital. While in the hospital he checked on me multiple times a day and made sure I was receiving the best care possible . He listens to your concerns, and follows through with all problems/concerns. Would definitely recommend anyone to see him.

    I was so impressed with Dr Salem when I met him! I was immediately at ease. He introduced himself to my daughter and me and shook our hands! He was so patient and thorough that by the end of my visit I was thrilled to be one of his patients!

      Yes, I like Dr. Salem as a nephrologist. He's always listening, understanding, and I misadvertently hit one of the no somewhat, no, and it should have been yes. Maybe it was seen in a timely manner. I don't want to do anything that would cause him any problems because he's a good doctor, and they saw me in a timely manner. Thank you.
