Very pleasant man and apparently knowledgeable. Unfortunately, seemed somewhat rushed. Left the examining room and I thought he was coming back, but he didn’t. I had more questions, but wasn’t provided adequate time to ask them.

1st meeting w/Dr. Salko today [& his P.A, Nadine]. Feel great relief, not only from carefully administered cortisone shot [ankle], but also gentle/cheerful 'bedside' manner. Sincerest thanks!
