My first visit with Dr. Justin Lofti was wonderful. Dr. Lofti read the medical files that were sent to him prior to my arrival and was aware of many of my medical issues in advance. This made the appointment go through very quickly and i did not have to tell him everything about me at 65. I feel very comfortable switching to him for my treatment and supervision of my continued health care.

Dr. lofti has been the prominent reason I am able to function. he put me back together physically and mentally by actively listening to my issues without preconceived judgement and answers. only after thoroughly listening did he come up with clear conscise plan to help me walk and move after atrophy from stroke as well as deal with extreme anxiety from strokes as well as career and financial ruined due to memory and physical deterioration. I am grateful for Dr. Lifting after 15 years of struggling with piecemeal healthcare. Dr. Lofti was a resident when I started with him . Grateful for his knowledge and skills as an amazing listener that puts patients concerns into a plan.
