“The doctor was a pro active listener, very patient, tremendous experience, and willing to spent time to review the details before arriving at a framework of evaluation. It was my first visit, but I felt I understand my situation much better after the consultation. ”
David C.January 13, 2026
“be prepared to wait , but i was fine with it because he is verryyyyy thorough. taakes his time , checks for every single thing he thinks might be wrong, does not rush u out, is very smart , if he doesnt know something he would look it up with u, if you tell him what you been taking he would look up the ingredients, best doctor i met in my life, just have patience with him i promise , make sure u clear your day when making an appointment with him. i promise he would get to the bottom of things.”
