My health insurance carrier recently assigned me to a Dr. Cresencio Duran at the Gonzaba Medical Group. Before seeing my new PCP, I was asked to go to an intake center for a barrage of medical tests. Until then I never knew that such a thorough battery of exams even existed, but these gave the doctor every conceivable metric by which to measure my overall condition. Then with the results of these procedures, my new doctor knew me better than I even know myself, and he was able to zero in further and ask every pertinent question. Based on my first med appointment alone, I think this doctor would rank among the top 98th percentile on any IQ test, he's that brilliant. He has a mind like a bear 🐻 trap, and I think I couldn't have done better by being assigned to the Mayo Clinic. Totally impressed with the know-how and methodology of both the clinic and physician!!! 💯!!!
