Dr. Katz helped me a lot and listened to my concerns about MS and other stuff. Thank you so much!!! The other people that helped me with things were also very nice.

I arrived at 2:25 p.m., stayed in the waiting room until about 3:07and Dr. Katz came in. I apologized for being late because I’d had faint luck w/ parking. He seemed rushed and a teeny bit cranky. I wish I had given him condolences over the palisade burning down. I lost my house, too. Kind of an unhappy time for us both.
