Patient Reviews
Jun 12, 2018
If you are looking for somebody who will sugarcoat and has a great bedside manner No you will not find it with him. However he will tell you the straight up truth which is what I needed to hear! He is the third neurologist I saw and the first one to give it to me straight! I was hesitant after reading the reviews but he did spend a good amount of time with me. And he really seemed to know what he was talking about! I honestly would recommend him to somebody!
