I've been a patient of Dr. Alter for the pass eight plus years. He is very patient, knowledgeable of what he does. Even when short on time, he always takes the time to answer my questions. He's also the Dr. for our two adult children of which both are comfortable with him. Yes, he has a sense of humor.
