He was my doctor for 10 years. I had a strong family history of breast cancer. He recommended I have annual mammograms, bi-annual breastand follow a strict diet, all of which I did. However when I found a palpable lump in my breast he could not feel it and and at the same time put off my mammogram for six months. Were it not for my gynecologist I may not be here. His manner is abrupt and arrogant. He seems knows nothing about breasts, examines them as if he were kneading dough. Both his judgment and bedside manner are poor. I found him to be extremely insensitive. My instincts were always right about him, however I trusted my referring doctor more than I judged my own instincts. Had I listened to his advice (lumpectomy vs bilateral mastectomy) I would have had a very poor prognosis. He lied to myself, his hospital and family members. I would advise any woman who uses him to RUN fast to another doctor.

He may be a great doctor technically, but I have found him to be incredibly arrogant and condescending, and spends so little time with his patients that it is hard to believe that he can diagnose them properly. I was scheduled for a minor surgical procedure and he literally yanked me away from the anesthesiologist, who was answering my questions, and into the OR because he was in a hurry. I have transferred to another doctor and have never looked back.
