I have been his patient for over 20 years. He is not only a great Doctor, but has become a great friend. He has a good sense of humor, and will give you all the time that you want. He listens to you, and will listen to any feedback that you offer. If you have an opinion of his diagnosis, he will discuss it with you. He will address your concerns about side effects of your meds. He is very open minded to your input as well.
