Extremely personable excellent mannerisms felt really comfortable. He’s very sincere and I’m excited that he is my doctor.
Awesome doctor. I was very apprehensive about the cryoablation he performed today. He was as gentle as possible and explained things as he went along. He is also a Christian and we had a good discussion about the Bible. Very satisfied with today's procedure!
