    I’ve only seen him twice but both times I felt like he didn’t seem very confident. He’s been fine to put in the referrals I have asked for, but it makes me feel less confident in him as my provider.

    he was insensitive, condescending. I’m pretty much rude to my liking. He should learn to treat people with respect, no matter their age and to listen to what the patient is saying about their bodies because they know their bodies better than the doctor.
