  • this was my first appointment with this doctor. Even though he knew going into the appointment that he was going to suggest that no new procedure of test be done, he spent almost two hours of his time going over all my concerns and answering all of my questions. He spent a good amount of time inquiring about my lifestyle and feelings to assure himself that I was not having any adverse heart impacts. The level of his concern and expertise was greatly appreciated.
