Only good words for the young doctor. Not sure what the previous commenter had for evidence, hearsay? First hand info? My experience with him in both the office and emergency room is that he is a competent physician, giving specialiast referrals as necessary with no problems. He seems to order all the right tests for every situation I have encountered. As to reading X-Rays, at the hospital where he practices, the X-rays are read by a specialist as well as the attending doctor, so if there were three fracture misses, they both missed it.
