    Dr G was exceptional in caring for me. He payed attention last year and was very thorough. This year, he referenced last year and tied it together to this year's appointment. Again he suggested losing weight in a very nice way, even with a little humor. When I asked how much we were talking about, he was fabulous! He said, how about ten pounds, which is very manageable. We both know I need to lose more than ten pounds, but he helped create a manageable goal. If I only am trying for ten pounds, I can do that. Then possibly another ten pounds. His attitude was refreshing and a just a little humorous, and very realistic. I appreciated him so much during and following my appointment.
