Dr. Firestein is one of the first doctors I've met that actually takes time to listen, explain, and answer any questions. He is patient and kind and never once made me feel dumb for being anxious about my health. I felt seen, heard, and truly cared for.

I was nervous about my situation and having a male doctor. But Dr Firestein was amazing! He made a comfortable environment for me to feel at ease and open to talk with him. He listened and was concerned about my fears and my situation. I am confident that he will find the problem and fix the situation.
