- February 18, 2021Dr. Issac is a very kind, caring doctor that actually listens to you and talks in terms that are understandable. He has helped me so much with my neuropathy.
- February 17, 2021Dr. Isaac is awesome and I greatly value him as one of my providers. He is not the first neurologist I have gone to and I left the other one because he was not listening to me.
