Dr. Watson is a new doctor to us recently because our other doctor, Dr. Aji, retired. We have found Dr. Watson to be a wonderful physician and with good interviewing skills and are absolutely delighted with his performance. He did two catheterizations and has explained it all beautifully and couldn't be more thrilled that we have him as a doctor.
