Never had a zoom meeting before, so I guess everything went good.
Good
Offered nothing new in regards to gerd treatment. I did not feel at ease it took 4 mos for the appt. He was just ok.
All aspects of virtual visit was timely and professional.
He did not know this was a visit predicated on a previous abnormal test, rather than just a screening test.
It was my first video conference call with a physician and thought it went very well.
Dr. Gal is always very thorough and answers any questions we have.
This video went well I had no problems or concerns.
Very good experience all around.
Good

Excellent
All good
Dr. Gal is a very thorough medical provider - he always takes time to ask me what my thoughts are regarding my health so that it is a true dialogue.
Dr. Gal was patient and answered all my questions.
