Patient Reviews
Feb 23, 2022
The BEST primary I have ever had. John Hopkins graduate (best Med. School in the U.S.) , understanding, personable, efficient and excellent at quickly and accurately diagnosing one's symptoms. Disregard any review rating less than four or five regarding his practice. I'm grateful to be a patient of his and I wish him the very best at his new "Gig," Community Care.
