this i believe is overall a good dr. but in saying that i also have questions about his reasoning,he diagnosed me with put in his words off the chart with r.a. and possible lupus sent me to a specialist who has been treating me ever since.because of my inability to use my hands because of pain & swelling alot of days i filed for disability when they contacted him he told them that i complained alot & smoked alot why didnt he just tell them that yes i diagnosed him with ra and sent him to specialist.which is what i think would have been the professional thing to do.
