So far he has been exemplary, responds to my emails within a few hours, appears to be highly competent and has a very caring, authentic bedside manner - I really like him.
Also, worth mentioning, I live in PA and Hopkins staff have been excellent in getting appointments scheduled (concierge), and working with my insurance.
Best of luck.
Egs78 - thanks so much for contributing to the thread! I haven't seen Dr Lum...I"m wondering what his diagnostic process is like. Did you have to go through lidocaine scalene blocks or Botox shots? Also, wondering how he diagnosed pec minor compression??

Thanks and hope to hear back from you...
