I've seen Dr Tran twice and he is excellent!
April 11, 2025
Dr.Tran came up with a good plan of action for my care, educated me about the issue with my ankle. He also had met with the UF pharmacist to get input on the new apothecary system that physicians will have access to to care for patients. So, we discussed a plan using a medication from the apothecary side of the pharmacy once it is up and running. I will be one of first patients to try this. I am happy that Dr. Tran looked outside the box for me to get relief. And he took time to educate me on the apothecary end from his knowledge from the pharmacist. I'm grateful for the team effort. This will be exciting in future care for many patients.
