October 24, 2015Faith H.Verified patient
A friend of mine recommended Dr. Veldsmid to me and she didn't exaggerate about his bedside manner or how he treats you as his patient. I appreciate how well Dr. Veldsmid listens. I did not feel rushed or misunderstood. Other doctors I have seen seem preoccupied and provide answers that have nothing to do with what you were telling them. Not so with Dr. Velsmid. He actually responds to what you are saying. He doesn't blow you off. This is a welcomed change from the last couple of doctors I've seen and I'm thankful that he has accepted me as his patient.
