He's polite, concerned, asks and checks out how I'm doing. He's knowledgeable, and explains any problem he finds. Answers my questions clearly. Tells me the cause, the care I need, my obtions, and possible treatment. I'm very pleased with Dr. Freeman, and greatly appreciate how much he's helped me to breathe on my own, and get off unnecessary medications.
