Same result each visit. Minimum medical treatment. Current visit suggested medical treatment advice from another medical physician who is a friend and knows my medical needs.
He was so nice to me answered my question. I felt so comfortable not afraid which I am sometimes. Will tell anyone to go see him.
Listened to my description of the problem. Explained what he was seeing, and came up with what I consider to be a reasonable treatment plan.
I had major shoulder surgery that I had put off for years. It went 10 times easier than I could have imagined. I followed his orders as well as physical therapy and my shoulder is now better than it ever was. I hope I never need another surgery, but if I do he'll be the only person who will do it. Thanks for everything Doc
