    Dr. Prussin was exceptionally thorough in his examination, considering all possibilities and discussing everything in detail as he did it. He was very patient and extremely accessible, even calling us the next day to tell us the results of tests and given recommended next steps. It was a tremendous visit and would highly, highly recommend him to anyone!
