Dr. Altman is very thorough and has given me different options for treatment explaining everything and answering all my questions. Going over possible side effects for each treatment and the understanding that we will be working together to find what works for me. Very impressed with the doctor and staff.
Everyone was respectful, professional and easy to talk to - all made I knew what they were doing and explained issues, procedures and results with care and in language that could be understood by a non medical person.
Very nice, great with my mobility issues
