I liked dr koivunen from the beginning. She was up front, to the point, I had a rough time with healing and she got me through it with as little pain as possible. And thanks to her I'm cancer free. There was no deceit along my journey she was upfront about everything. She took every step with me. I would recommend her to everyone. I'm thankfull to have her for my doctor.
Happy in mid mo, cancer free — Jul 18, 2022
