Patient Reviews
Jul 04, 2023
Right away I liked her as a doctor because she took care of things where others had dragged there feet. She has been willing to try medicines for me at my request even though insurance companys sometimes denied her requests. Over time ive learned to trust in her judgement. I dont always follow her advice to the letter but she continues to ride me about the things that she knows are best for me. If anything i wish i could be a better patient.
