Dr. Howse came up with a diagnosis quickly and prescribed two medications which I picked up on the way home.

He makes me feel like he actually cares about me instead of just trying to get me to take tests, etc., to increase revenue for Franciscan Health. Dr. Howse goes through the results of any requested testing, asks a variety of medical questions, ensures he renews prescriptions, recommends other medical care and also explains why he thinks I shouldn't get certain medical care, etc.
