    Dr. Kessler is so wonderful that for the yr and a half that I was away, I refused to see a Dr. Until I got back and could see him! He's blunt yet compassionate, he's very attentive, he actually sits there with you not above you and talks to you not at you! It's extremely hard these day's to find a Dr that will talk in terms that you can understand and relate to. I really dread the day that I might have to see someone other than him.
