  • Aug 30, 2024

    The provider was very dismissive and offered medication after I told me I just want to find out the problem. The medication that the provider proscribed I told the doctor I have taken before and he insisted that I take it. I do not like the provider. The providers bedside manner was unacceptable.

    Dr. Tirol is one of the best doctors ever encountered.

  • Jul 27, 2024

    Dr. Tirol is extremely caring and considers my suggestions for my care. He listens and provides answers to all my questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a neurologist.
