Only concerned w making money and charging your insurance. Indifferent and cold when my husband saw him. His credentials are excellent but he types away at his computer during your visit and is very cut and dry. Won’t go out of his way for his patients. It happened a couple occasions over the years w him so my husband is now seeing a new doctor. You feel as if you are only a number to him and not a person

I agreed with previously review by Lula L. He may have very good credentials but he is too concerned of charging insurance to make more money so his ethical judgement is out of boundary; he has no answers when questioned.

One of the best. If you do your research independently, you will discover an impressive doctor. He is ranked as a Top Doctor in two separate national surveys. He is the progeny of a nobel prize winner. He is competent and knowledgeable. Apparently some other doctors rank him well on surveys. But should you go to this doctor? Will he help you? He didn’t help my family. He didn’t coordinate care. He didn’t step up to the plate when disaster struck. He turned his back on my old person. And she suffered unnecessarily because of it. And when asked about what he did not do, he simply confirmed without showing any sympathy let alone being sorry for the misery caused by his neglect. How do you rate someone who seems like he could be a good doctor, but who abandons your family at the critical time? He is tall and impressive looking. He can be charming and helpful when he chooses. But he can be coldly indifferent to exceptional suffering and show a remarkable lack of humanity. What do you want in a doctor? Punctual? He is. Short wait time? Yep, the office is organized. Impressive looking? Tall and well kept. Knowledgeable? Has all the credentials. Available by phone? Never. Nice office? Very large upscale offices. Available to consult on an emergency? No. Concerned for your health? Isn’t that the million dollar question. I would say that you should not do your research for a medical professional on Unilocal,but then again the more legitimate sources of medical professional evaluation can lead you astray also. In fact, word of mouth is perhaps the only possible method. Ask every doctor you meet who they recommend. Ask every person you know who they see and if they recommend that doctor. Ask and ask and ask. Slowly you will build a general knowledge. And you still may not get a decent doctor. It is freaking difficult. There are so many ways to evaluate a doctor and so many criteria that everyone value separately. Then you may get the best doctor and be his one fail. Good luck.
