    Dr. Pistawka was precise, honest and knowledgeable. A simple telephone appointment explained my condition and how to monitor and handle it going forward. Alleviated any concerns I had and I felt he had thoroughly reviewed my file prior to this first appointment, so I could trust his advice completely.
