Dr. Peter Axelrod

Although I acquired MRSA in his hospital, I can't fault him. He spent an abundant amount of time with me on each visit - not once did he ever stop an appointment before completely answering my questions. He thoroughly explained his decision-making and the effects of the course of treatment. He does prescribe a lot of medicine, but when you are suffering it is probably the best option available at that time. He also worked with me to quickly come off of the habit-forming meds, with as little pain as possible. I wish I didn't have to be on the nasty antibiotics for so long, but that was no fault of his. He made his personal cell available to me at all times. He called my surgeon, while I was in his office to discuss my course of treatment with him. Any time I left a voicemail at his office, I received a very prompt response.
