My former doctor left and I was apprehensive about seeing a new provider. But I was impressed with his breadth of knowledge. I appreciate him taking extra time for my first appointment. I felt like a priority.

The doctor was helpful and easy to talk to. He was able to order increase to my antidepressants. He offered to set me up with a counselor in the office.I declined at this time. He said if I need to see him for my mental health issues to call for an appointment.
