You can use the square brackets to concatenate two strings (or arrays, matrices, etc.) together. For example:
a = 'hello';
b = ' world';
c = [a b];    % c is the concatenation of a and b: 'hello world'
You just have to enclose your num2str in these square brackets and add the string for the units, similar to the above example.
