It is so good to have Dr. Kose back. I had my annual physical today and had not seen her since before her leave. She was as warm and welcoming as ever. She spent a very good amount of time with me discussing what had been going on with me in the time since we’d last met. I feel very comfortable and confident in Dr. Kose being my partner in my health care
