I am so impressed with Dr Blume! there are not many docs like him any longer. Most herd you in and out like cattle, they know nothing about you. Not Dr Blume! it does not matter how long he is with you, he makes sure he go's over everything! he answers all your questions, he researches what is BEST FOR YOU, not what is most convenient for him. He actually listens to you. Dr Blume is what being a doctor is all about! You may have to wait longer in the waiting room to see him, because he does not push his patients thru a revolving door, however rest assured he cares and does what is best for you.  THANK YOU DR BLUME AND STAFF!
