This was my first visit to this doctor. He took his time. He looked over my records and explained things and advised me that he would check with my cardiologist about my meds. He sent me for lab work and sent me a message via my Hopkins Chart with the results and told me to call him If I had questions.

It was my very first visit and he was absolutely EXCELLENT!!!!! He listened, gave his professional opinion, had a plan, and even with suggestions asked how I felt about it and if I agreed. I loved that! Honestly, he came to conclusions in a single visit that took the VA months to with all the specialists involved to even consider. Extremely satisfied and impressed. Especially when after arriving home the doctor himself called with me results from my blood work. That has NEVER happened!!! ; )
