What a kind compassionate PHD. He treated me like a friend, and was very respectful and definitely not Condescending like most physicians. I’m very grateful for his kindness and professionalism.
He was very nice and explained everything well. And he didnt seem like he was in a hurry. I felt like he listened and was concerned as I was explaining my pain and issues.
Very caring, concerned about the patient's concerns.
