Highlights from patients about their experience with this provider:

    (5/5)
    I appreciated that the doctor listened to me and responded with insightful questions and responses. He looked at my bare feet. I'm having trouble walking and I had wondered why no one else had. It made sense to me. He did not brush my concerns aside and promptly ordered tests. He seems to have an idea already what's going on.
