    So lucky to have him as my doctor. I felt hopeful about my upcoming treatment and the treatment plan

    Have been seeing him for many years and always trust his diagnosis and treatment plan.

    He is the best. He cares about my treatment and condition, takes the time to discuss and explain treatment options, and go the extra mile to insure I have all the available options. I couldn't ask for a finer doctor.
