    He was quick to refer me to a member of the team most related to my need. He was very informative however I provided him with wrong information about my condition which unfortunately was critical. So I did not get the information that I would have received should I have provided accurate information. He was good but I messed up.

    Dr Morse is clear, direct and to the point. At the same time, he listens and answers questions clearly and in layman terms. His wisdom and knowledge is appreciated. He clearly and positively summed up the situation, and he has given clear direction for what the next steps should be given my current situation. It was a positive experience to talk to Dr. Morse, and I am pleased that I am under his care in this situation, as before his involvement I did receive some conflicting recommendations regarding my potential ailment from another MGB Dr. Therefore, from the plan that was made for my Biopsy, and then now that we know the issue is benign, but worth watching: I am glad that Dr. Morse is leading the way in this on-going process.

    Provider was 15-20 minutes late for zoom session, seemed very rushed, didn't know any of my hx and didn't really let me speak or explain my concerns. It felt like I needed to talk a hundred miles an hour to get the information in because he would cut me off. It was fine -but it wasn't a good experience.
