    He was very thorough. I could tell he cared about my health. My wife is a retired physician and also said that appointment was the most thorough and caring appointment she has ever experienced. He deserves a rating well behind the highest rating on your scale.

    The medication change he made has made a large impact. He also prescribed two different inhalers, so I could choose the one with the lower cost.
