He took great care of me.  He's always available through e-mail and responds by the end of the week, yeah thats kinda a long time but still its better than nothing.  Appointments for him are always a bit spaced between due to the high volume of his patients but it gives more time for me to work on myself by myself.  I couldn't have asked for a better doctor, now his office staff lol thats another story but it was a belssing either way [:
