“I was one of Scotty's teachers. He is bright, personable, scholarly and a fine doctor. One is surprised about his vast knowledge of music including classical opera and the great composers of the golden age of classical music. His sincerity and great concerns for his patients place him in the "A#1" group of physicians and dentists.”
