He did not make me feel rushed in the slightest. He explained everything repeatedly and thoroughly, and even pointed out some conflicts with meds that no one else did. He also took some of my complaints seriously re: my sinuses that others have not. I could tell he was really listening to me and taking in what I was saying, corrected me when I had incorrect assumptions about things, and was very kind throughout. As a woman, I am always grateful when my symptoms are taken seriously. He also did not run too far behind schedule, especially considering it was an emergency sick appointment and everyone is overbooked this time of year. Not once did I feel like I was forgotten about.
