He's the backup for my doctor, so I've had to talk to him on the phone a couple times and thought he was pretty rude. He also refused to come and do the first checkup on our newborn son at the hospital, which everyone was flabbergasted at. As a doctor, I have no idea if he's good or bad, but he needs to work on his bedside manner. I know he's one of the more supportive doctors in the area regarding natural childbirth and breastfeeding and such. If you're willing to travel to Novi, our family doctor is David Schindler and he is WONDERFUL, not to be beat. After he was seeing our daughter the first year of her life, both myself and my husband started going to him and we love him. Now a lot of our family members and friends go, and our new son of course. It's a true family practice.
