He asks a lotof questions, and he's a great listener. Keyed in notes directly to my file as we had our QA session. I was concerned about the prior testing that was done and he told me there was not enough detail in those tests to really give him the information that he needs. So he ordered more. I will go back for stress testing. He's the kind of doctor you want and immediately feel as though you can trust him.
