23 Apr 2017 0244 hrs. Greetings... I first discovered Dr. Ponhold back in the middle eighties. I lived on east coast, came home for yearly visits. Dr. Ponhold helped me immensely. I relocated, and saw him in private practice in Downey...he was great. Then, I transitioned to VA. I just discovered him through the internet, I miss his professionalism, knowledge and skills. Richard.
