Doctors assistant was cheery and polite. She guided me all through preparation for the doctor. Doctor Padilla was great telling what more receive need. She is the reason I’m trying to quit smoking! When I saw her three weeks ago for severe bronchitis, she told me firmly but with empathy the my smoking was definitely why I keep getting chest illness - immediately went from 15 to 5 a day!! I’ll do it.
