Showed concern for my health. Explained thing I a way that I could understand.
Very polite and caring person.
He was very personable and thorough with explaining my condition and how to correct it.
I appreciate you attempting to fit me in but this is two straight visits being seen 45min+ past my appointment, at separate offices. Simply unacceptable. I understand I've missed an appointment in the past but there's a financial impact to the patient when that happens. When the doc can't make appointment times, it's still the patient expected to bear the burden.
Yuri was informative, used visual aids, and was polite. He answered all my questions.
Rushed. Did not take the time to answer questions, prescribed medications without explanation out in the hallway. Walked away leaving me to ask the aid what had been prescribed and what the plan is. Our family has used this practice for years. This experience was far below any other provider there.
Very informative
Always measured and honest in His appraisal of your individual situation...completely has my endorsement and more importantly, my trust.
After our friendly and casual introduction Dr. said, “Your spine is a mess.” I had hoped for more finesse. He then took a more positive approach by referring me to an endocrinologist considering my osteoporosis.
Dr was so caring. He recommended a pain clinic and gave me a support to be wrapped around my waist & back support , that is my story@ & I’m sadly stickin to it, The one doctor i have not seen within The practice ,I would ,,certainly tell someone about him,,,,,
