Excellent care!! He always explains everything in depth to me and includes me on all tests so I understand everything. Always appreciate his kindness and level of care. Excellent doctor.!!
He rushed through quick encounter and barely made eye contact. Complained he had no one to help take notes, complained the UVA imaging machine was too old, was unhappy with my records, interrupted me often as I tried to explain my condition and concerns. Obviously was in a rush to move in. Similar to my first encounter with him. I hesitate to go back despite his medical reputation. Have told others to avoid him.
Dr Prum is outstanding in his field. I wouldn't trust my eyes with anyone else.
Dr. Prum is always in a hurry & it is difficult to communicate with him
Dr Prum is a special resource. His experience and interest in the field and help he provides us is appreciated.
Really like the UVA clinic
