The doctor spent along time with me (over 1 1/2 hours), doing different exams, asking me questions, looking things up on the computer, talking about prior and future treatments/plans. He was very thorough and genuinely cared about me and my concerns and treatment going forward! My husband and I both were very impressed with the amount of time he took with me, to make sure my concerns were addressed. I never felt like he was rushing through the appointment to get to the next patient! He is a very good doctor, and compassionate.
