He's helped me all he could, especially with the [...]. [...] I realise Dr Butler is a good doctor, maybe the best, but he's only able to give me whats out there. There are no magic pills and I wonder if there ever will be.

Dr Butler was excellent. Thorough history taken and exam done. He is in diagnosing mode so there wasn't much to say except this is screening we will do. Dr Butler is excellent at pt care while being approachable and understanding. There was no rush and showed true interest.

I was doing some weight lifting exercises which were not good for me. He explained that it could make my muscle spasms worse. He encouraged me to use lighter weights and do more repetitions. He never minimizes my questions and he listens to my concerns.
