Patient Reviews
Dec 10, 2023
His bedside manner was exceptional so much so that I was somewhat shocked. It is oftentimes hard to find a doctor who actually takes the TIME to listen & discuss the medical issue(s). The pre-procedure conversation left me feeling beyond comfortable that I was under his care. His empathy and compassion during this encounter rates up there with my most loved medical providers involved in my healthcare, the ones who actually see you as a human and not just a *job* they are performing.
