Only 1 doctor, but he has a pa working with him. I've been using him for a few years, very happy. Anything specific you want to know?

I use him. He is the only doctor, but he also has a nurse practitioner in the office. He is thorough, not an alarmist and always available in an urgent situation. I highly recommend him!

I agree! I have been using him for my kids for 15 years. He has always called back within minutes when I had an emergency.

He also spends alot of time answering questions. He has a very large family himself so I felt he didn't only answer me with textbook knowledge but from his own personal experiences.

Despite being a tall man with a beard (which can seem scary to babies or little kids) he is sweet and gentle with little ones!

A wonderful doctor!

I'm very happy there. He has a PA. He also has evening hours. Very organized office. Easy to get records, referrals, school medical forms etc.

Is he very busy? Long waits? Is he more old style or updated with latest in medicine. Does he discuss concerns with mother and listen if you dont want to do something he recommends? Diagnosis? Does he have good good referal places?

Waits are not awful. I find him professional an up to date. He spends as much time as I need-I dont feel rushed. My teenage sons like him.and find.him easy to talk to regarding their concerns. I recently use the female PA more for my teen daughter. He can refer to wherever you want and will offer advice regarding who to use if you request.

He is busy but the wait time isn't usually too bad. It depends when you schedule your appointments. Be prepared to wait 30 minutes. Sometimes its less.

His office is completely computerized. He himself is very up to date on the latest studies and loves to talk about them.

If you don't want to vaccinate don't use him. Many years ago I had a neighbor who he declined as a patient because she didn't want to vaccinate. I am assuming he hasn't changed on that point.

He has always referred us to specialists that take our insurance.

I use him and are very happy. Good diagnostician. My older daughters see the female pa.
He has emergency walk in hours from 930 -1030 every night so his patients have no need for urgent care and have good continuity of care.
Was very helpful when dealing with a preemie.

Funny he should refuse a patient who doesn't vaccinate. When my friend asked him about the real need for the Hep B shot, he said, if you're worried that your kid is going to catch hepatitis B (from immoral behavior), you have a lot more to worry about.

I've been using him for 18 yrs. He is great. Love the PA too. He does not take patients who do not vaccinate.
