NOTHING! I have NEVER enjoyed seeing any doctors until Dr Pate. He is friendly, jokes around but is a good listener. I have NEVER experienced a doctor that acts like real human being before. As a counselor I tried firstly to put my clients at ease too. They-children and adults-were surprised by this. That's a shame! It seems emotional constipation is a disease that should be treated.

Continue to offer same day appointment. I was having a very aggressive cough with hoarseness and could not get a call back from Pulmonology. Pate Medical provided treatment that calmed cough until I can get appt with Pulmonology. Grateful they were available.
