I went for a referral for neck and spine . He had already messaged me that he had taken care of it and set me up with appt. Before I got to my scheduled appt with him and prescribed pain med to manage my pain until I get to the spine specialist. I felt he was on top of my request and put in in a very good position for the next step . I appreciate having a physician who is ahead of the game ! Absolutely recommended him to anyone without a PCP
