Dr. Owns does a great job working with even more specialized specialists like major research institutions for rare conditions and continuing my care locally without a hitch. He goes through and is very thorough and with explanations and ruling out diagnosis. Even when they are common, he isn't quick to jump to them and dismiss your concerns and how seemingly small things impact your life in a big way.
