Very nice well spoken man. Was great to sit with a doctor who listened to what was being said by me without Interrupting and making an Inception. Plus it's been well over 25 years since a doctor has put his hands on me . Just to feel any parts of my body to see where did it hurts was a part of a doctors job of the past. Within the first minute he found a problem with my health which was a shock to me . I wish he was a regular GP doctor but it's better to be a specialest . I can't wait to go back for my second visit .
The bigger plus is also the Employees who work there are on a much higher class of workers who know there jobs and are the upmost professionals I've ever Encountered in my 69 years as a Patient. Thanks for caring from everyone.
