"As a state ranked swimmer, my lungs ached and I was constantly plagued by shortness of breath, but I attributed this to swimming outdoors in the winter. I figured my sinus infections, wheezing, and strep throat were things I would have to live with. As the doctor prescribed various treatments, all I cared about was whether I would be able to continue swimming.
In the years that followed our first meeting, my doctor has seen me through numerous ups and downs as I learned to manage my health. He always listens to my concerns and never fails to take them into consideration when he ponders what course of treatment to prescribe. In return, I trust him to help me manage my health in the most effective way. "
