Review for Dr. Harris
Dr. Harris listened to me. He requested the proper tests and concluded that what I needed (and what I wanted) was valid. He took the time to explain the diagnosis and what options I had. I was very happy that we agreed. If and when I need help again I will definitely go to see him.

Used to see him when he was in Tucson. Dr. Saved my life when he discovered several life threatening conditions that were missed by the VA and other doctors. I'm still around because of him. Wish he was still my doctor.
