What else would you like to say about your experience?
Dr. Dear is the perfect example of a great primary care physician. He reviews everything about your medical situation and helps you to make the best decisions for your overall health. When you see specialists, they typically look only at the symptoms associated with their emphasis. That specialist then prescribes what is best for their discipline. If you are seeing multiple specialists, your care is approached from a silo perspective. Dr. Dear helps one to understand the combined health issues and determines the best higher level approach. He is valued and appreciated.
