  • I've been to dozens upon dozens of doctors in the past few decades. Some of my medical problems were relatively common - my ADHD and learning disability were definitely not unique to me. But some of my problems were a bit atypical, and most doctors I had met with treated me like a textbook case. Often they'd run some tests, try a few medications, and when all that failed they'd give up and make me feel as if it were all in my head. Over time this has been quite costly, frustrating and demeaning to say the least.

    Working with Dr. Carlton has been very much the opposite of those bad experiences. He's one of only a handful of doctors I've met that truly puts patients first. He has left no stone unturned in trying to help me. He LISTENS to the things I have to say about my conditions and my progress. He's honest and realistic about expectations. He doesn't rush me out of his office like I'm a widget on a conveyor belt. And medication wasn't his only (or even his first) tool for treating me, which was what made me seek out his counsel in the first place.

    Above all, Dr. Carlton seems to genuinely care about his patients, which to me is what defines a great doctor.
