      He really listened, asked a lot of questions and got to the root of the problem quickly. He made excellent recommendations and brought to light issues that needed answering for over a year. He actually read the scans and imaging sent prior to visit and was familiar with our case. He's a really great doctor and caring soul.

The time he spent explaining my situation to my wife and me as well as the thoroughness of his examination and a path forward was far beyond any expectations I may have had.
