    I appreciate that he talks to me first fully clothed, then steps out of the room for me to get into a gown and then again to get redressed and comes back to talk more. I told him I appreciated that he did an actual physical exam. [redacted]

    Yes, Dr. Bloch is a wonderful doctor. He explains things to me. He seems to care. He gives me enough time. And he seems very involved in my care and kind of double checks a lot of stuff for me. So I really would recommend him highly.

    I appreciate that Dr. Bloch is warm, kind, easy to talk with, and extremely knowledgeable about Sjogren's syndrome. Many physicians do not have this knowledge and before seeing him, I was being followed--getting frequent blood draws (and potentially a spinal tap)--for a symptom that is often just part of Sjogren's and better followed by him. Being able to consult with Dr. Bloch and put my symptoms and care into perspective regarding Sjogren's has helped greatly.

    Dr Bloch takes the time needed to thoroughly examine me. He is knowledgeable in Sjogrens and I feel I'm in the BEST hands.
