Patients appreciate his thoroughness in conducting examinations, reviewing medical histories and test results, and explaining diagnoses and treatment plans in clear, understandable language.

Patients also share
The reviews reveal very few areas for improvement, with the vast majority being overwhelmingly positive. One patient expressed concern about privacy during a video visit when another person was visible in the background looking into the camera. A couple of reviews mentioned instances where visits were not particularly helpful or where follow-up communication could have been better, such as one patient who reported no follow-up after being told to schedule an X-ray. One review noted that while Christopher provides excellent care, he may not be receiving adequate support from other departments within the healthcare system. These concerns are minimal compared to the volume of positive feedback.
