I have had excellent care from Dr. Becker. I doubt that I would be here if I hadn't taken "change of heart" class with Dr. Becker many years ago! Both my son & daughter go to Dr. Becker and are happy with his care!
it was good, but I still had questions when I left. It didn't necessarily feel rushed, neither were additional questions encouraged.
