Patient Reviews
Jun 19, 2024
Immensely impressed with his knowledge and diagnostic ability. Just as impressed with his down to earth personality and ability to explain his findings and treatment plan in a way that was easy to understand. He spent an inordinate amount of time explaining everything while showing us the latest scan of my lungs. Also appreciated that he explained he had additional treatment plans in mind if the initial treatment wasn’t successful. I would highly recommend him and would rank him as one of the top doctors I’ve been fortunate enough to be treated by.
