“Really great doctor. Very patient and carefully listens to all questions and concerns. Genuinely cares about his patients, and follows up regularly about anything discussed. Always has new ideas or suggestions to try, but very respectful of any doubts I had and didn't try to talk me into anything I wasn't comfortable with. Best doctor I have seen in a long time, and the first one I completely trust. ”
