Experienced, knowledgeable and professional
The Doctor is knowledgeable and competent.
Dr. Was on time & he had studied my medical situation before the consultation.
The doctor was extremely detailed and explanatory
Doctor seemed like he was uninterested. I'm not a candidate for surgery so he was not interested at all.
Doctor was friendly and down to earth. He took the time to explain my imaging to me and my husband. He encouraged questions. Great bedside manner.
Doctor was very interactive and on time
How complete the discussion was.
Excellent care
