Dr. Aysola is very knowledgeable, but he also carriers a great deal about his patience. It’s been a long time talking with him today about my situation, and I think we both understand it better. I appreciate his knowledge and his patience.

The initial doctor assessed my situation and was very helpful. My primary physician made some suggestions and reiterated feedback I got from the initial interview. I was very satisfied with the information I received from my appointment.

This is the best doctor I've ever had for anything. Brilliant, friendly, takes his time but is also efficient and doesn't waste any either.
