Love this Dr. The only reason my appointment was delayed is that he is a super nice human being. The lady before me in the schedule is handicapped and had trouble arriving on time for her appointment. Rather than ask her to reschedule, he made the choice that the younger people with fewer troubles could wait. I endorse this 100%

I think the experience was very good and it enabled me to get in with a specialist in a few days instead of a few weeks. Dr. Evans was very good at listening and explaining what his thoughts were.
