Dr. Dean is hands down the best doctor I've ever seen. My other doctors said nothing was wrong, and they didn't listen. When I saw Dr. Dean he knew exactly was wrong and how to treat it. After years of being disregarded from other doctors, I'm so thankful I found Dr. Dean. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
He spent the time needed to examine me, answer all my questions and offered to assist me with getting equipment I needed that my PCP was dragging his feet with knowing how badly I needed it and agreed I needed it.

Dr. Dean was kind and respectful and answered all my questions. I've been trying to get help for my lymphedema & lipedema for years and he's finally a provider who listened.
Welcoming. Willing to explain things. Offered a few suggestions. Appeared interested
Dr. Dean is the first doctor he has taken the time to careful review my medical history and symptoms and make an accurate diagnosis. I've been seeing multiple specialist for issues and he is the only provider who figured out they are symptoms from one condition. The other specialist were prescribing medication to treat my symptoms that made the underlying worse.
He was also very thorough and covered every detail of my current issues. And made referrals and ordered tests to determine course of action. I could not be more pleased with his course of action !
Dr. Dean is the nicest and best dr I've dealt with. He is very patient and is an excellent listener.
