I have been seeing Dr Amin for many years. He remembers who I am, provides clear explanations and does a complete exam. Today I showed up on the wrong day for my appointment and he offered to fit me in. A thoughtful approach. Nurse (maybe Angela?) was also terrific. Introduced herself and asked all the chart questions appropriately.

He was funny and informative. Really confident at work, did the exam, took some biopsies… it has the potential to be really uncomfortable and scary. He (and the nurse) made all that go away. Now it’s later, I know how to take care of where he worked. It’s a good feeling.
