Dr. Metzger is so pleasant!! I didn't go in for anything specific, just as a preliminary visit, referral and general check-up, but I am glad I just picked him for my PCP. He's a 5 minute bike ride from my office, and his staff is pretty nice too.

I can see why he has great reviews. Made me feel really comfortable. He took his time, didn't rush the session and answer all my questions. The staff are friendly and helpful also. Will recommend Dr. Metzger to anyone looking for a doctor.
