    Doctor Shalmi, is very knowledgeable, kind, and most importantly takes time with his patients. I am never sent to a physicians assistant after a procedure when I come in for a follow up exam. I always see Doctor Shalmi, I drive from [...] to Westchester to see him and he is worth the drive. He is very skilled at what he does and has helped me a great deal with my back pain. His staff is kind and caring and I recommend this office highly.
