Dr. Sears and staff were friendly & respectful. Dr. Sears was exceptional in his explanation of a CT Scan and In detail, explained what was on the monitor screen. I've never had a doctor that went through scan In a way I could understand and at a pace that was easy to understand. He was also reassuring of my condition. Very grateful to know there are doctors like Dr. Sears around.
