    It made good sense to have a video contact, in this case, for my good and the doctor's. It saved both of us (and my wife) the effort associated with traveling to an appointment. Beyond that, there would be nothing that Dr. Alaref could do to improve this experience. He was very aware of and sensitive to my needs and concerns, and thoroughly answered all of my questions, noting that I should contact him if any problems arose.
