Highly competent. Ready to refer to a specialist if he's not sure. Great network of specialists he's known for many years. Great listener and excellent bedside manner. Cautious, but not overly so, with diagnoses and recommendations for testing. Highly recommended.

ZocDoc apparently does not effectively interface with their system, so there was some confusion. Better to call them directly for appointment.
