  1. Excellent doctor, he listen to inputs, explained everything clearly, vert pleasant and helpful

  2. Yes, I just wanted to say I thought that Dr. Hahn did a thorough job in evaluating my situation. He explained everything very, very well. The only problem that I had was someone, and I'm not sure who it was, entered about nine medications on my medication sheet that was not accurate. They weren't my prescriptions. So I went in to my chart last night and I think I deleted most of them. And when I looked closely, I could see that there was a medication, a myostatin, that was for lesions that this person had.

  3. Dr. Hollen was very easy to talk with. He listened carefully to my issues and asked questions and had good suggestions to help my situation.
