    Dr. Echo is a great listener. I appreciate and respect his approach and honesty in how he is able to help me vs another physician. I think any physician that knows when to send someone to someone else in order to have a potentially better outcome is quite honestly awesome. The kind of collaborative care I feel I am experiencing is just great. He laid out how he can help me and we established a plan of care.
