Very good communication skills.
Very nice and professional .
Listened and gave options other than immediate surgery which gives patient more time to follow recommendation .
My Doctor was very clear in CB making Decisions with his patients.
If you’re expecting someone bubbly and grinning ear to ear you’ll be disappointed. But if you’re expecting someone knowledgeable who listens and answers all your questions, he’s your guy. It was worth the wait to get in to see him. He was honest and up front.
Always listening, thorough examination.
