He was very helpful.
Very kind and helpful
Very professional and experienced.
Not as personable as Dr. Tuck. Gave me the name of my diagnosis; but did not ensure I understood it or write it down. I called today to get the actual diagnosis and no one called me back or left a message. Shrout was very late for my appointment and offered no apology. I miss Dr. Tuck. Please call my phone and spell the medical diagnosis he indicated in today’s office visit. X-ray tech was very kind and thorough.
Professional, friendly, thorough and answers questions in a way that you can understand. Left knowing my status and what short and long range options applies for me.
