      He is the most compassionate, kind and informative physician from which I have ever received care. He never rushes, takes time to listen, explains in terms the patient understands, and genuinely cares about the well being of the patient. If he ever were to leave my local hospital, I would follow him to continue receiving care from him for my chronic cancer.
