Dr Alex is great ! He cares about his patient’s wellbeing, he listens to what you say instead of just nodding to get you out of the office, takes the time to explain IN DETAIL, In language you can understand, what’s wrong and what he thinks is the best plan of action. I, myself, fully trust him and recommend him 100%
