Dr. Haikal’s personal philosophy when it comes to patient care is, “Each patient is unique and requires personalized care. I listen to my patients to better address their concerns. I prioritize their issues, then develop treatment plans incorporating the patient’s values and situation. I always try my best to provide compassionate care, because medicine is more than prescribing medications. I treat my patients as I would want my family to be treated, as I would want my family to be cared for.”
