Ben is someone who looks at you as a whole person. He’s the kind of person who looks at you and your symptoms. I have had may PC’s before and by far is the best one I’ve ever been to. He is not someone who hands you off to the next person, but tries to help and understand you and your problems. He is on this journey with you.
