    Trent was very impressive. My wife and I looked at each other after the appointment and said, ""wow!"". Excellent communications all around, detailed and understandable. Entertaining, engaging, and fun as a patient, yet spot-on serious about the medical issues at hand. His ""bedside manner"" is absolutely fantastic, and I've been to a lot of medical appointments over my years.
