Patient
I'm impressed. My cardiologist referred me to Dr. Maddux for a cardiac catheterization diagnostic procedure, and I met him for the first time only shortly before he was to plumb the depths of my heart. He'd read my history and the order and talked to me about what I understood was to be done. He listened to what I said. Based on all that, he thought a variation on the ordered procedure would produce better information. He stopped his morning and talked with my doctor (the one who'd ordered the test), who agreed on the slightly different procedure. This provided much better information for my physician to help me make a decision about what to do and, potentially, saved me from having to go back for another test. The procedure went smoothly as has the recovery.
