| 5.0 | Jun 26, 2025 | I was first treated by Dr. Rawitscher over 20 years ago. After getting me through a difficult few years, he let me know that he was always there if I needed him but that I was good without additional support at the time. That act represents superlative medical ethics. When I began having heart problems again, I knew exactly who I wanted and needed to see: the same doctor who treated me with compassion, expertise, and ethics all those years ago. I was not at all surprised to find him to be the same superior doctor I remembered, the same doctor that 3 of my other physicians all said was "the best".So, although this is a scary time for me given my current symptoms, knowing I'm in the excellent, expert hands of someone who cares gives me confidence in my diagnosis and treatment. | |
