Intestinal pain

Dr. Salih is a very good specialist in gastroenterology. I was experiencing intestinal pain and stool problems. The doctor understood my ailment without a colonoscopy. He patiently listened to me and explained what we will do and what we can face. Thanks to him I feel great now and I am very grateful to Dr. Salih Boga.
