Everyone was very kind and professional. Dr. Makower took his time in assessing the issue, taking a sample, and explaining the course of treatment. He was also very patient in answering any questions I had.
Visit with Dr. Makower was excellent. I also seen to check my circulation. That was great as well. The receptionist offered me a cup of tea but I never received it. Maybe next time.
