I find it interesting that there are no reviews for Dr. Michael Dowd. And I also find it interesting that I am the one writing the first one for him as I was a patient of his way back in1997 when I was in a very dark period of my life. And the only reason why I am writing this today is because Dr. Dowd's name was shown on a Medicare record of service I obtained for medical reasons. And when I saw his name, the memory of where I was and how he helped me through that and the tools he gave me to continue to work with have been amazing, because and I apologize to Dr. Dowd, but I guess in lots of ways it is a compliment, but I had actually forgotten I had gone to see him one day a week for six months. But I can think back at that time and laugh, Wow, and thank him, and no offence intended, but possibly forget once again that I went to see him and enjoy my life as he expected me to do. Thanks Michael for all your help and guidance. I can remember him being very patient, having great empathy, Directional, and warm in his approach to his patient care. And Excellent Doctor.
