He called me on Friday 11/18/16 to discuss the results and let me know next steps. I was astounded at his follow-through and sensitivity and must say that I did not expect this kind of treatment from someone who is in such demand for his skills and training. He deserves recognition for his people skills.

WFBH Patient 10/24/2016

I have been seeing this provider for a very scary health issue. He identified the probable cause to my issues & explained this to me. He also ordered testing & in time seeing a different type of specialist to help rule out other causes. The probable dx he felt was my cause ended up being the best plausible answer. I am greatful to have had the investigation to make sure nothing else was the root of my issues. The way I rated this provider is the way I would have rated each & every visit for him & the supporting staff. I have had a very positive experience.
