He took the time prior to our call to review all of the information I provided about my medical history and recent treatments. We reviewed all of my options going forward leaving it completely up to me to proceed with a protocol of my choosing. His demeanor was pleasant, informative, empathetic, and engaged. He has an innate ability to listen and converse. Just a really great guy. So glad I found him.
