He explained my sonogram results plainly and allowed me to view them. He explained in detail what he believed was not wrong with my leg -- it was not a vascular problem. He made good suggestions and follow ups with an orthopedic doctor to rule out a spine problem. He has a pleasant personality with excellent bedside manner.
