Patient Reviews
Jun 25, 2017
She was my Dr as a child. I am now 40 years old. When I was 9 I had several health issues such as stomach, ear,nose and throat issues as well as skeletal issues. I was diagnosed with 7 yes 7 ulcers at the age of 9. During her extensive examination she also found I had a hernia, no gallbladder and gastritisrtis. All at 9. Then a friend was seeing her for cancer...she couldn't put it into remission and her compassion compelled her to pay for funeral expenses.
