Very personable and explained everything very well. Made sure that all my questions were answered before he left.
I was very pleased with my appointment. He took time to explain things to me and answer all of my questions. He was very professional and thorough.
It was only to meet him before he replaces my knee. I saw a total of 3 people, which took a full hour. He is taking on patients like me who have had to change doctors because their original doctor is unable to.
Good communication skills, thorough in explanation of procedure and answered my questions
He made me feel completely relaxed for a first time visit just before surgery.
Very interested in your problem. Works to find a solution.
Listened to my concerns. Explained procedure and options. Was very caring and considerate and calming
