Patient Reviews
Jul 23, 2020
yes. I have many times. I think he is the best doctor ever. He listens and I think that is important in a doctor. He is very intelligent. I feel like anything that goes wrong he can either fix it or get me to someone who can. I think he takes very well care of me and my husband.
