Patient Reviews
May 14, 2019
Became a patient of his at the beginning of this year, and have found him and his office to be exceptionally efficient, courteous, responsive--and effective. My A1C numbers have rapidly improved, and have been able to drop medications previous docs prescribed that weren't working. So far, I'd rate him as the best endocrinologist I've had in the decades since I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.
