This was my first meeting. Dr. Dean was very warm and friendly and we covered a lot of topics. I feel that he took the time to get to know me and my history, and I thought his exam was very thorough. He was even very helpful at navigating the cost of a new medication that may not be covered by my insurance. I appreciate his very professional and polite approach.
