He is arrogant and should not be allowed to practice as a dr. Almost let the man I love with all my heart die because he would not talk to me. This is so involved its unreal. Do not go to him. Finally found GOOD drs that actually care and listen. Just my opion

The doctor seems very knowledgeable on various medical topics. He seems to really listen to you. Can over assume, but has been reasonable in my experience to talk it out. His staff lacks professionalism. It can take up to 3 days for a call back. They cannot make appointments properly with referrals. And never seem to know where your records are. I personally witnessed the nurse picking up a bloody coated gauze and did not wash her hands or the location where she retrieved it, then touched various surfaces afterwards. She even put her hand down into the sharps container. Appointments are generally 1-2 weeks out to be booked. Long waiting time also. They do not call to remind you of your appointment. Never had any issues with their billing department.

I was his patient for several yrs. When I questioned his medical treatment. He angrily yelled at me. Told me I needed to find a new doctor.
