Dr. Townsend is a great Doctor. Very thorough reviewing information I brought and explained things in detail to me. He was able to get me an ultrasound right away and was there to make sure everything was captured that he wanted to see. Afterward he explained the results. I would highly recommend him to all friends and family.
