the care could not improve in anyway it is exceptional in every aspect from start to finish.By far one of the best physicians he listens, expresses empathy with information and actually sits down to explain everything.
Dr. Andrew Soisson is "the cats meow" in the world of doctors. It's hard to find a doctor who really demonstrates empathy and compassion for the patient like Dr. Soisson does. These are traits that every medical professional should possess but sadly, that is not the case. Dr. Soisson is a gem in a pile of rocks. He's a rare and priceless gem. My recommendation is to do whatever you need to do to keep him happy because you don't want to risk losing him. Give him a raise! And I'm not talking about some paltry, poor excuse of a raise. I'm talking about a raise that puts a smile on his face and on his wife's face.
Dr Soisson is absolutely terrific!
