Dr. Was running 1 hour behind at 8:30 am due to a meeting. He was able to conduct appoints speedily so as to try to get back on schedule for his patients but he was still considerate. I said, "I know your busy so I won't waste your time with a lot of questions." His response was to stop and look at me and reply, " you are my patient, therefore I will take whatever time needed to answer your questions and reassure you. Without my patients, I have no job. Please continue with your questions." I appreciate his effiecncy to get on schedule and not lollygag around, but also stop to communicate professionally with his clients. If your not intelligent enough to be able realize "professional bedside mannerism" then maybe you shouldn't be writing reviews that can effect a talented doctors skills. He's not there to woo you, but give you facts and reassure you-which he dies. Would you rather have an ignorant FAKE smiling Doctor -or- an efficient and knowledgable doctor who may not sweet… talk you into a procedure. Think about.... These are your veins... Your life lines in your body.

Very unprofessional, terrible bedside manner. Had to apologize to my family for his conduct. People, PLEASE find someone else if you're in need of surgery.
