Dr Taggert explanation of procedure, benefits, what to expect were very thorough and concise. His explanation of the new med what It is for what It is gonna do how long I鈥檓 gonna take it was the clearest description I鈥檝e ever received. He took the time to research my lengthy medical history, to determine if I needed to continue with the Eliquis blood thinner. And unlike some of my other doctors who hemmed and hawed, he made a positive decision to stop it. I am extremely grateful and satisfied to have been under his care throughout this procedure.
