Patient Reviews
Oct 27, 2023
He was one of the only radiologists to really take the time to listen to my symptoms and carefully explained to me the situation and the available treatments. After our 45 minute appointment I left feeling immense respect for this doctors KNOWLEDGE - he was able to recall relevant research studies that pertained to my rare issue. And he did so in a way that was kind and understandable.I went in there expecting just another doctor that knew nothing about my particular brain problem but he confirmed to me his knowledge by stating specific information about it. If he knew so much about my rare condition then I can't even imagine how much he knows about the more common vascular and artery related procedures.
