Doctor Clair and his team were very pleasant and engaging. Doctor Clair explained my ultrasound fully. He also pulled up my last 2 CT scans and looked over them for any changes. This visit went well and put my mind at ease.I also learned about some current clinical trials that might help my friend with his leg. He will be seeing Doctor Clair at the end of the month.
