When I was a child, this Dr. assaulted me. Because of the statue of limitations in TX, I cannot press charges against him. I feel permanently wounded by this assault, do not send anyone you know to him.

Amazing doctor! He goes out of his way to make appointments when our children need him. He is very well read on current diagnoses and trends in medicine.
