This is my second experience with Dr. Padgett, the first for treatment of the same him 15 years ago. His care and consideration exceeded any expectations I might have had. I flew up from Florida to meet with him because of my very positive first experience with him and the trip was well worth it. His PA whose name I do not remember ( I truly apologize ) was wonderful, caring, empathetic and was so clear and concise and helpful.
