The doctor was great! She instilled a sense of confidence in me that me and my wife (we were seen together) that was very reassuring. She was thorough, and most importantly LISTENED to us. So many people these days are so focused on what they want to say that they don’t listen to the people they’re talking with. The doctor we met with today was the exact opposite of that. This was a good experience.

I had so many concerns. She addressed all of them and I left feeling so much less anxious than I have in weeks.
