Awesome personality. Pleasant. Relatable. Welcoming. Knowledgeable. Thorough. Easy to talk to. He listens. Ask right questions. And my mom replied at the end of the visit, “I like him”. And she definitely let us know if she doesn’t like her doctors.

Dr Cousin has been my doctor now for at least 10 yes. I wouldn't trade him for no other doctor. He has patients and he always has his best interest and concerns for his patients. He is the best. Thank you Dr Cousin for your service. My husband and I appreciate you very dearly.
