His knowledge is exceptionable in this day and age.

12/04/2023

I dont understand med terms that well so gets beyond me and makes me frustrated which I think makes him frustrated. He is a very nice man but alarms me sometimes as to what all he tells me. But he is knowledgeable and nice just not personable. It may be we just don’t click well.
