Definitely one of the greatest doctors we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. He made us feel comfortable in what felt like a stressful situation. He has great bed side manners and was very thorough with us when it came to my treatment plan. Certainly one of my favorite doctors and would recommend him to anyone!
