Dr. Lackey was professional, warm and friendly. He was newly assigned to me. I met him for the first time after one prior phone call. He was familiar with my medical history. Dr. Lackey worked with me rather than just tell me what to do, and listened to my concerns. I found him to be knowledgeable and competent.
