Matter of fact, listened to me without interrupting & answered all my questions. Even came back to answer one additional question that the PA couldn't answer. Seemed rushed, had lots of patients to see.

Dr Sethi was prompt, attentive, kind, and competent. He was clearly well-informed and practiced in determining the cause of my alarming symptoms, as well as effective at communicating these to patients in a non-condescending manner. I felt 10x better after seeing him despite the pain of my symptoms.
