He was concerned for my comfort during the exam and asked me to let him know if there was any pain during the exam. I felt the the exam was comprehensive and comfortable.It was a pleasure to meet Dr. Pearl and the staff was also extremely nice and friendly. The appointment was a very good experience for me.Later that day Dr. Pearl called to let me know the results of a previous test. I thought that the call from him personally was very nice."
