Dr. Davies provided the highest standard of professional care and human compassion. His staff reflected the professional, compassionate example he set. I live an hour away from Randolph. Dr. Davies saw me during his lunch break to permit me to avoid peak traffic hours. I can't recommend this practice highly enough.
