I had a great experience from my first consultation with Dr. Batty yesterday. Dr. Patty is truly knowledgeable, thorough, friendly, approachable and caring, he took the time to listen to all my concerns without making me feel rushed, explained everything clearly and provided me with an assessment and treatment plan.
