Patient Reviews
Mar 13, 2019
I have found him to be one of the most caring physicians I've ever been to. I know he often stays late to personally call to discuss test results & check in with his patients. He truly cares about them; i.e. treats the person-not just the body part - which is a rarity in this day & age.
