Please double the above score (2 X 10!) Not only his incredible knowledge, scrutiny of every aspect going on, nothing escapes his observation and analysis... His careful patient, explanation and education of procedures needed to me the patient . Of course the written analysis as we know patient only hear 50% of what the doctor says and probably lose half of it on the way out of the office, In short HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST AND I AM GRATEFUL TO BE ONE OF HIS PATIENTS ! Happy New Year!
