Excellent! What a wonderful experience for my daughter and me to be in the company of a physician with excellent knowledge and understanding of her medical condition. Genuine, high skill set and a good listener. Engaging and did not make us feel rushed. So thankful for his understanding of her condition and guidance. Thank you!!!!
