Dr. Askins is a very caring doctor, he listens to how I feel, assesses the situation, and gives any options available. We discuss the options and go with what's best for the situation. A doctor that listens is very important, some patients need that more than anything. My health problems can't yet be treated or solved and listening helps me more than anything.
