Patient Reviews
Mar 13, 2024
I've been taking my elderly father to Dr. Prum now for probably about ten years. Dr. Prum is a very busy man and that's because, as he explained to us recently, he is one doctor who not only sees new patients, but takes care of keeping up with how his old patients are getting along instead of sending them back to their physician and telling them to get back if any problems. Dr. Prum is a great doctor and has helped my Dad with a very difficult problem that I am convinced would have had a very different outcome if it had not been for Dr. Prum. We have total confidence in him and would highly recommend him. Keep it up! We appreciate you!
