      Dr. Washington is one of the most empathetic, conscientious, and knowledgeable physicians I've had the pleasure to meet. He spends as much time as necessary to explain and discuss your medical situation, and answer any and all questions you may have. I feel very fortunate to have him as my specialist. His staff is excellent as well!
