This is my 3rd visit with him. I have not seen him as relaxed as personable as he was today. He reviewed all my previous tests, test findings, prognosis and detailed the plan of care. I gave him less than ideal score last time but today I saw not only an acknowledgeable physician but also caring and personable one.
