When you’re young and healthy, all you need is a doctor that makes sure you’re not overlooking symptoms that might indicate serious problems. Yes, caring matters and so do communications skills, but the soft skills and current knowledge becomes more critical as patients age.As you age you need someone with a 10 in skills, smarts, and the ability to predict how important your symptoms are and where to send you for the most accurate diagnosis and treatment plans.Sure, someone easy to work with still counts, but as more serious conditions become more likely with age, having a doctor that knows you, your history and and has ‘seen it all’ becomes more and more important.Dr Haynes has both the soft skills that make it easy to work with him, and the hard knowledge and experience that result in accurate diagnoses in time to take advantage of current medical treatment protocols.
