Doc is thorough, smart, good listener and willing to explore options
February 17, 2026
I consistently receive a more thorough exam than from any of my other providers, regardless of service! Physical, medications, history, review of labs. He communicates suggestions clearly and reasons for changes or new actions in person, in addition to a printed appointment summary. This gives one a chance to respond or ask questions. Then, he answers all questions and makes sure I understand. Pineless is the kind of doctor you pray to have! One in a million! I have already referred family and close friends, something I almost never do. I have worked in healthcare and pharmaceuticals for over 50 years and I was referred to Dr Pineless by another long-time healthcare professional. We know who the best ones are!
