Dr. Alan Gordon Cole, MD

while other doctors have brushed off my medical issues, Dr Cole took a lot of time with reviewing my history and even called me from home to check on me while he was out of the office. It is hard to find a Dr that will go beyond expectations to check on their patients.

I consider myself rather medical-savvy and feel I advocate for myself well. However, I had been plagued with condition after condition beginning in 2008 when I was 38 and went from doctor to doctor trying to find out why. I felt all my doctors were intelligent and thorough, but disagreed when they all chalked up my problems to "stress". Finally, a referral of a referral of a referral ended me up with Dr. Cole...by the time I saw him in 2011, he was the 7th doctor I had seen. Within minutes of starting my exam, he found the problem everyone else had missed...a tumor the size of AA battery was on the left size of my thyroid. Over the next two months I underwent an ultrasound and a biopsy and finally got my diagnosis...thyroid cancer. I shutter to think where I would not be if I had not been referred to Dr. Cole and just accepted I was "stressed".

Caring, follows-up.

Dr Cole -Has a great personality, is through, and really cares about his patients.
