Been seeing Dr. Hamilton for about 8 years. Always friendly and concerned about your well-being. Test results are always reviewed in depth and explained in terms you can understand, while answering any questions you may have. Openly discusses treatment plans that may improve your condition, while discouraging treatments you may have heard or seen, and explaining why for your particular condition.
