Mostly lab based dialogue. Some labs need to be explained as people do not know what they are/mean.

Would highly recommend. I felt like the doctor listened and did everything to get answers and find a solution. He also took the time to explain everything. My son has achieved great weight gain and success under the doctors care. Couldn't be happier.

*Dr. Hafberg, spent a very detailed amount of time with my daughter. Ran blood work to try to get to the bottom of all that is going on with her health. He's a top-notch doctor!
