Takes time. Really cares. Great at explaining options.
I’m a senior citizen, but I have seen Dr Rob for 20 years, when he was at Shands. There is not a doctor with a kinder, more considerate manner than Dr Mathias. He is thorough, very careful and makes sure that you understand exactly what what’s going on. I am BLESSED to be his patient.
My first visit with Dr. Matthias. He is very personable and friendly. He took his time answering all my questions and discussing all my options. If need to I would gladly drive the 20 to 30 minutes to see him again. And, I would recommend Dr. Matthias to family and friends!!
