Johns Hopkins School Of Medicine

Phone: 410.614.6089
Comments: I have been quite satisfied with the
way in which I have been treated.
The GI Doc and the ID doc
and my new PCP all are on the
same sheet of music,
plus the computer network is pretty
impressive, they can each pull up the
others notes, lab work etc..
Comments: This doctor is amazing.
For as busy as he is and his
involvement in studies and teaching,
when he met with me
I felt as if I was his only patient.
After carefully reviewing my records,
he sat down with me for no less than 45 minutes,
answering my questions,
explaining my condition and options
and drawing diagrams to
explain the technical stuff.
He routinely orders tests that
other docs seem to brush of as unessesary,
such as genotype and cryoglobins.
I didn't even realize cryos could
explain the terrible aches I have.
He is a model of what a
doctor should be.
I am truly blessed
