Dr. Ballet is very responsive. He is thorough. He looks at my case with me, explains everything very clearly, and makes a decision, taking to account my description and what I have to say, and also weighs what's important to me. I highly, highly recommend him. I've been through many specialists, and I think he is way at the top. He's really wonderful.
