    Dr. Kinsey has been "up front" with me in all aspects since my diagnosis and continuing treatments. He explains everything in "laymen's" terms.

    Dr Kinsey was very good to explain the clinical trials and make his recommendation. Just so happens his recommendation was the trial I had traveled from Charlotte,NC to discuss with him.
