Did thorough evals in person and through assistant taking many readings. Verified that heart had somehow healed itself from prior palpitations and bad EKG pulses. Answered question posed 1 year after visit through messaging, very well technically.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
