He's one of the top doctors in my book...the kind you don't mind having an appointment with. Knows to really listen and inform knowledgeably about your condition, the path to follow going forward, and what comes next after that.

Dr. H discussed plan to reevaluate my progress and that the medication that I’m taking may be causing some of my other symptoms but I may not need to take it much longer. I forgot to ask him about some other therapies like massage for some of my discomfort. I will try to do more weight training.
