I am satisfied with the amount of time Dr Ellis spends with me. But It takes him a long time to get to me after I have undressed and waiting in the examination room. I'm not sure why.

I had photos on my phone of moles that I was concerned about. Dr Ellis and his assistant took the time to review them and make sure there weren't any moles that he had not checked or seen.
