When the told her that the was under a lot of stress, she paused and asked me what was going on that is causing my emotional upheaval. She listened a I explained; even before she did her work on me. I feel vulnerable heard and seen. I wasn’t expecting to have a doctor care enough to assure me how I was doing, and really show an interest in me, besides my medical reason for going there today.

She was fast and efficient. She was friendly and personable. I think the only thing I would have like is to have had a little more of a conversation to see if prescriptions or anything needed to be renewed and to see if I had any other skin concerns. But she got a biopsy done and I barely felt it so I am happy about that.

With this follow up visit I must mention that Dr Lina Saeed miraculously navigated the referral approval approaching the speed of light for my UVB light therapy that is working; we discussed continuing the treatment plans… today we also discussed topical creams but I’m a bit apprehensive since the cremes previously have been ineffective .. Dr Saeed is extremely informative and scientifically astute yet remains humyn !!
