Dr. Hood is an exceptional provider, who always has shown care and concern for my heart health. He always walks me out to the front every time I have an appointment with him. I have heard he does that with all of his patients. He is always kind and compassionate, allows you to speak and genuinely listens to your concerns. Amazing doctor hands down.
