I was literally blown away by her service. I did not think caring doctors that gave you time to think, process the information and ask questions existed. Normally, you have 30 minutes to talk after waiting an hour. I was going to cancel the appointment - self diagnosing. Im soooo glad I did not. She was awesome! I actually cried when I told my sisters...and crying as I write this. Over [...] years I battled with this issue and now I can find peace and closure."
