Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2021
Nobody like him! He's the best! So detailed, focused and thorough. He spends nights/weekends going over your lab work and will call you to discuss, recommend other actions or tests. Sunday, 10-31-21, 8:45pm, he just called with ECHO results. Love him to the moon & back! My husband uses him too. A+++ in our book
