I took my brother to the wrong location.... and it was a happy accident! We were greeted by Zabeeda. She set such an awesome tone for the entire visit. She manually transferred my brother to this location, due to my error. I'm so glad we were at THIS location. My brother is visually impaired and the entire staff took their time to accommodate him and make him feel welcomed. Amanda created a levity with her bed side manner which built upon the initial impression. Additionally, Dr. Patel made sure that my brother understood what was happening. My brother commented he didn't feel a thing. At every step, it felt like we were with people that were called to this path. That truly makes a difference. Thank you for your help. I'm grateful you treated my family like it was yours.

If I could give a higher rating I would. From the time I spoke with the telehealth nurse Jack to the amazing J who got everything coordinated for me and constantly reached out to make sure all the is were dotted and t's were crossed, and the amazing staff and all the nurses. My experience was great. I came in with severe fibroids, bladder leakage, and severe cramps. Dr Patel handled me with so much care. He explained everything in a way I could understand and fid an amazing job. It's been a little over a month and my stomach has gone done, no bladder leakage. I do have some cramping but understand that to be normal as the fibroids shrink. I would definitely recommend Azura Vascular.

Everyone was so kind and made a point to work around our very busy schedules. They even stayed open late so that we could make an appointment and not miss school and for this I am so grateful. When we arrived, we got the best care and everyone was very friendly. The doctor took excellent care of us and I would highly recommend Azura Vascular Care Atlanta. Thank you for taking such great care of us!
