Review for Dr. Henchcliffe

Really didn't get to talk to the doctor, only the nurse practitioner and he wasn't that great. If I asked a question, he seemed to struggle to find an answer. What can you expect, he's not a doctor.

Review for Dr. Burton

I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a cardiologist. My Dr. retired. I hesitated looking for another at 78, I am so glad I did because he is everything I expected and more.

Review for Dr. Goodwin

The doctor wouldn't see me but so said recommended surgery without so much as offering another option. I have other options that work for my condition, but being i went through the VA, it seems all these people want is that quick surgery money.
