I saw him at Johns Hopkins in 1999 and can honestly say I have never met a more compassionate, caring doctor in my life. Not only did he do a great job with me, but his personality and approach to everything about Cushings was astonishing. Believe it or not, I have not seen him since summer of 1999 and just e-mailed me to see how I was doing. He had been thinking of me and my family over the years and wanted to check in t see how I was getting along. When was the last time a doctor you haven't seen in four years contacts you to say "Hello, how's it going?" That's the kind of person and doctor he is. Please add him to the list.

Because he was the only doctor that immediately diagnosed my case correctly. I was about to lose my life and the moment he saw me he told me it was Cushing's. He thankfully had advised me to immediately go to my country to do Adrenalectomy, as I was diagnosed with Cushing's Syndrome. He had really saved my life after God, and I would like to tell him THANKS A MILLION dear Dr. Taher.
