So kind and knowledgeable. He spent the time with us to explain everything so we are not surprised on anything. I so appreciated him and his nurse!
Great guy and physician. My first visit with him and very kind and personable. Very thorough. Great bedside manner and i was very pleased i chose him from my friends recommendation. Thank you
Prior to surgical procedure he sat down and answered my questions. Great “bedside behavior” Highly recommend him!
Always so willing to listen and answer any questions you might have.
Listened to my history and concerns, examined my area of complaint and together we developed a treatment plan. He's very attentive, compassionate and professional.
Very comfortable with provider and staff.
Had to wait over 50 minutes to see the doctor. Unacceptable wait time.
Quick, concise, thorough
I saw Logan!
