    *****

  • "She is an excellent listener. After listening completely to what I was saying she told me what she thought she heard me say to make sure she understood. And she did understand, 100%. She is very knowledgeable, polite, professional, displays appropriate humor (easy to talk to), and genuine. She was on time and she did not rush me. She explained her thoughts on treatment and I was able to schedule my next appointment for the following week with no troubles. I felt at ease and comfortable and feel confident I am moving forward with the correct person."
