I will deeply miss Dr Archer when he retires, he has been my neurologist since 1999. He is such a special person and his leaving will be a huge loss for UAMS.

Because of lack of time because of my complicated history, I hope to follow up soon for more specific details and prognosis of my current condition. But we are trying only treatment available and it was the best neurologist appt I've had in decades.

I would give Dr. Archer a higher writing if it were available. I have been seeing him since I believe 1998 or 1999.

Dr Archer is a top doc! Why? He has all the attributes including: superior knowledge and experience; genuine (emphasis added) caring and concern for "me"; professional and personal integrity, I.e, help by prescribing and locating best medicines to meet my needs at best (lowest) prices available.
