I was very impressed with Dr. Priest. I felt listened to, he didn't rush me, he wasn't dismissive, he was incredibly thorough in all the bloodwork he ordered and thorough in going over my symptoms, and has already given me a referral to a specialist I've been needing to see but was having trouble getting in with. My husband was very impressed with him, too and believe me that says alot! I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing an infectious disease doc.
