Little information or advice about my health issue is offered. My questions are answered but I don't know what to ask sometimes.I appreciate being taught about my specific condition. I have to request tests that other cardiologist have routinely done without my asking or they're not done.

I have seen Dr. Montgomery several times for care. He has always been great on every level. However, this time something seemed different. While he was still attentive, I got the impression he was a bit annoyed. It wasn't about what he asked me, it was more about the tone in which he asked me. In the moment, it made me feel a bit defensive.[...] In the past, I recommended Dr. Montgomery to several people, however, based on my recent experience, I am withholding any recommendation until my next appointment to see if it was just an off' day for both of us.
