I have been experiencing some intestinal issue for a few months but recently it has gotten worse. I left a message Sunday night online requesting an appointment for Monday or Tuesday. Monday morning a nurse scheduled an appt for today. Dr. Solomon set up some tests and we’ll go from there. Everyone was great, from the time I arrived to when I left.

First of all, the timing for his call was perfect today. Secondly, I really enjoy sharing thoughts with him that sometimes are outside of my medical problems! Thirdly, and most importantly, he responded to my issues. I have concerns about the “new” blood pressure medication that I’m on, but will try increasing the dose from 1/2 pill to whole and see if there is an increase in any negative symptoms.
