Patient Reviews
Dec 15, 2021
Absolutely the best doctor EVER!! She did more for me in one visit, so far, than I’ve had with any other doctor besides my Primary Care Physician since my Diffuse Scleroderma/Crest diagnosis 7 years ago! She made it a point to explain everything, asked questions and gave me time to ask questions that most docs barely give you time for anymore! She is kind and caring and I felt quite comfortable and even though my case is a tough one, she didn’t shy away, as some docs have, in the past. I highly recommend her and her office staff are on point and equally attentive..so glad I asked for a referral to her after doing my research of the docs in my area. ??
