Dr Plato always makes me a partner in decisions. He is the absolute best. I will never go anywhere else and continue to recommend him
Reviewed on 06/14/2026
I appreciated his willingness to be candid about the fact that there is likely no real help for my condition, and was willing to document that in my chart bluntly. Doctors say it all the time, but are often cagey about writing it down.
