Comments
"Very good experience with my specialist. Really appreciate the diagnosis and our plan of care that was set up moving forward."
"Great doctor, checked records before she saw me, this was nice of her to do. Was methodological in going through symptoms, causes, guess, outcomes for actions necessary to take, etc. Was actually a really nice experience. Will be recommending her to everyone I talk to"
