Has moved so it's no longer applicable to PG, but was my doctor before moving. It was mixed. He was very pleasant and likable, very willing to listen and help... but I got the impression he was just a prescription writing machine. He misdiagnosed my mother and mishandled some tests of her, and without performing any diagnostics, wrote me a prescription and told me to take it four times a day. When I went back to get it refilled, someone was filling in for him and told me that the medication I was given should never be taken that frequently, ran some tests and put me on a different, correct medication for my condition. When he came back, he seemed totally confused as to what was going on and when I explained what the other doctor had said, he just said "well, that's what we should do, then." Just totally disorganized and seemed confused about what he was doing, which could be dangerous. Such a nice guy though.
He has been my Doctor for almost a year and I find him to be excellent. I was in hospital for 10 days and he gave me excellent care. I find that he listens to me and really cares about how I am and my general well-being!
