Dr. Ander is the epitome of what all doctors should strive to be! He is patient, kind and takes his time to really understand how he can help you. This is the only doctors appointment I actually look forward to. We need more doctors that care as much as he does. Thank you Dr. Ander! Best, Bridget

He listened and very knowledgeable. We had MRI and we had the results. He went over the MRI and showed us the pictures and told us the diagnosis.

Dr. Ander seemed completely unconcerned with my neuropathy and the fact that I had not had my a1c checked (for diabetes) in quite a long time. He didn't order the test. My B12 came back low enough to explain some of my numbness and pain, but again he was unconcerned. I went to a primary care physician and she immediately put a tuning fork up to both feet and said one side had some sensation loss, then ordered an a1c. By comparison, Dr. Ander's staff struggled to take my blood pressure and seemed pleased with a number around "102/96" (really?). He never recommended any medications and basically just wanted to rule out major problems with my brain. After a scan came back normal, Dr. Ander "celebrated" with me by telling me he thought I made the whole thing up for attention and that he did not want me to ever follow up with him again. Doctors do not get much worse than this.

I was able to see him right away. The wait time is less than 10 minutes which is great for a specialist. He listened to me and really cared. He ordered the right tests.

Horrible!!! Worst doctor ever!! Gave me Botox for my migraines and screwed up my face!! Too much on one side and not enough on the other! So one eye could not open at all!!!!! When I called his office to tell them what happened they said he was on vacation. He called me from vacation and said sorry can't help you... I said can't you refer me to another doc. He said no, and to wait till he gets back from vacation. What a dumbass!! I lost time from work cause I looked horrific, my boss sent me home. A few days later a strange doc calls me out of the blue and says he's a colleague of Ander, he also said to wait for Ander to get back from vacation cause he doesn't want to get involved!! (What?!?!?!!!)

He has been a so good to us and has the best manner. He would get perfect except for the wait time but then again so many people to see him and so little time.
