    Dr. G has been responsive to my need for reassurance regarding the situation that brought me to his care, even when he knew I was not in any immanent danger. He gave me time with patience and compassion. I know that should I experience any difficulty going forward I would be seen in the most timely manor or directed to other care in the same way.

    There’s always a feeling that the doctor is under pressure to move your time together along… the next patient is waiting at the door… the clock is ticking… move things along… a definite atmosphere of uneasiness… the days of a doctor who really cares for you are long gone…
