Dr. Anwar is skilled and dedicated at his trade. He is thorough and compassionate and I felt so comfortable having him look at my sinus issues. He's a great listener and takes the time to explain everything in terms I understand. Most of all I appreciate that he did not push procedures or medications on me! I feel like he genuinely cared about my well being and I trust his opinion as he's extremely knowledgeable.

April is Oral, Head & Neck Cancer Awareness Month — and it’s a reminder that early detection can be lifesaving.
Head and neck cancers impact thousands every year, yet their early signs are often overlooked.
A persistent sore throat, hoarseness, or swelling in the jaw may seem minor — but if it lasts more than two weeks, don’t ignore it.
