Dr. Roman has always be exceptional in his compassionate care and as showed concern. I have a very complicated constellation of clinical problems, some without exact diagnoses. Every step of the way he has taken time to discuss different possible diagnoses, concerns and treatments. He always has responded to my questions and involved me in all decisions. As a physician, I especially really appreciate his manner and intellect. He is one of the best physicians I have ever had.
