Patient Reviews
Oct 06, 2023
I had some issues with her staff and with getting an appointment. Now she is in a different office & the staff seem much better. I went to her with a high A1C and instead of just putting me on one of these super expensive new drugs and telling me I'm fat (as a previous endocrinologist did) she really reviewed my labs and discovered my PTH is very high and she explained how that effects the glucose. She is also very sweet & pleasant.
