    Dr. Pickron shows no compassion or empathy towards me and my condition. If you have T had any experience with the diagnosis, it would be very thoughtful if he would take a few minutes and explain the diagnosis and everything associated with it. This is very emotionally traumatic and I expected much more. I would not recommend him if asked.
