Dr Pickford is an exceptional doctor. He is very caring and is not in a hurry to get through the appointment. He involves me in my care to get me the best care possible. He even took the time to speak to doctors after being done in the office and then he called me at home to let me know I would be getting phone calls from these doctors. He said he worried about me and wanted to find out what was going on with me. He is the only doctor I have had that has called me at home. .
