He always seems prepared for visits. He is aware of all my lab reports and ER visits. He explains thoroughly the conditions that he suspects and confirms as well as the treatment options and procedures. He does all this with out being smug or condescending.

He helped me find the right prescription for my migraines. My life is so different now that I have the power to control my migraines. Thank you, John!!

Very good doctor but at times I feel rushed. He talks to fast and when I put my input in it seems like he already has his mind made up. The receptionists are blah. They never smile and are also quick. They make appointments and then they give you the card and no bye or have a nice day.

I find this Dr to be VERY impatient and gruff at times.

This is a great doctor who cares. He explains , answers questions, & is genuinely concerned. I'd recommend him who has any neurological concerns.
