Enjoyable and informative visit.

I gave him a terrible rating last year because of his attitude and social skills. (none of the negative comments were intended to relate to professional care) This year he was absolutely friendly and personable. Enjoy the visit.

I had to wait a long time once in the examining room. A bit annoying but in the end, he's worth it.

Outstanding physician!

He gives a thorough exam.

It seemed like he was being expected to bounce around a lot between patients. (I’m guessing not enough providers, not the doc’s fault) I had a 1:45 appointment which began right on time, but the appointment wasn’t wrapped up until 5:00! I didn’t expect to be there 3 hours and 15 minutes. If that is typical for an extensive exam and surgical consultation, it would be helpful to inform patients of this when scheduling

Only disappointment was a very long wait in the exam chair of over 45 minutes while my eyes were dialating.

Nov 8, 2024
I would just maybe suggest staff check in a couple times to let patient know the delay before seeing dr a second time. I wondered for a bit if I’d been forgotten in the room. Otherwise, perfect!
