Not only did I immediately feel I was in capable and caring hands with Dr. E., but I was astounded at how meticulously his office endeavored to gather my medical history afterwards. I was a little surprised when we "ran out of time" near the end of my visit.

He cares about his patients

Feb 26, 2026
The doctor was incredibly personable, polite, and professional. Even though it was our first meeting, he made me feel completely comfortable right away. He took the time to sit down with me and carefully review my previous charts from Kaiser in California, which made me feel heard, valued, and confident in my care.

He exceeded my expectations for professionalism and medical decision making. His communication style is very patient-focused, even angling the computer so he was still facing me as he was referencing my medical record. We discussed my plan of care and decided on the next steps together. A refreshing encounter indeed!
