Sep 19, 2024
Visit was fine and informative. I just want to give a huge shot out to his nurse Shay, she has been so helpful on my journey to recovery from the surgery. I message her about anything and she answers right away and is on top of my needs. I feel like I have a private nurse just for me.I am truly grateful to her.
