He came prepared having reviewed my records from my previous ER visit. He was very thorough and even requested additional xrays to rule out any potential fractures in the leg that may have been missed when I was in the ER. He explained things very clearly and I never felt rushed in my apt. He even did a follow up visit with me after the xrays he ordered were completed to discuss the results and next steps.
