	April 2025 I was very impressed with Dr Willis. He introduced himself, asked questions about my problem, physically assessed, explained my problem and drew a diagram while explaining the physiology. States it was common and there was no treatment needed at this time. Stated he would write a note to the referring physician. He was extremely pleasant and thorough.
