Apr 20, 2023
This is my daughters neuro. This doc was running the hospitals on COVID patients plus the ER. Amazing he did it! Sometimes diagnose can be wrong. I always say get another opinion. I was scheduled to him pre COVID. Although I’ve read all bad reviews about him. He explained things to all of us, but I’m afraid to bring myself to him,
