    Sean Strope is a professional and a friend. He's been an amazing sounding board and so patient with all our questions. I feel very lucky to be one of his patients. My family also feels comforted with he and Dr. Colman at the wheel. If you're looking for good care and capable hands, go straight to the team of Colman and Strope. They're the best in the business!

    Working with Sean as my PA through my treatment has been a very positive experience. He is very professional and sees lots of patients daily, and yet he is able to make you feel as if you are the most important person he is seeing. He explains things very well and makes sure you understand what you are seeing and talking about. He is genuinely concerned with you as a person not just a patient. Easy to communicate with making what can be a scary, stressful day seem like a visit with a friend who really cares. Excellent!!
