I had the fortunate blessing of having him as my doctor as an emergency patient. I guess I was having a serious heart attack and the rescue squad had prepared Grand strand for my arrival. The man saved my life it's really that simple and I have never felt better. I owe him a deep debt of gratitude. I certainly was fortunate that he was there the night I had my heart attack. Thank you doc

Great doctors but very hard to contact their office, much frustration in the process. Enough to give you heart problems.
