          Dr. Ladd has been great so far. Good bedside manner, knowledgeable, intellectually humble, willing to try things; all around a great doc! Our appointments feel less like a doctor visit and more like an office hours visit with a really good college professor. Gee, I wonder why that is...

          He was knowledgable, courteous, forthcoming in answers in determining diagnosis. Ordered blood work tests to determine and rule out diseases for accurate diagnosis. We will discuss test findings and treatment pending blood work results.
