Very condescending, couldn't get a word in or describe my issues without being interrupted. Bed side manners are the worse I ever experienced BUT I can tell he is a very good doctor but his patience and listening skills are poor at best.

Answered all my questions and concerns with knowledge. Often asked me if I more questions. During the procedure, he explained the next step before he performed it. The medical assistant who took care of me went above and beyond to help me with my vasovagal syomptoms post procedure. Unfortunately, I don't remember her name.

He's very cold. Didn't feel comfortable with him. It was like a technician checking on a robot's wiring. Dismissed a lot of the information I gave him.
