She is an excellent physician & takes her time to explain everything. I really really appreciate that because sometimes I forget and I really need stuff explained to me sometimes 2 or 3 times. And if me or my husband don’t understand something she’ll help make it clearer for us. I have never walked away from her appointment confused.

In our meeting, she carefully thought through current pain-relief meds & what might be considered for change. She took into consideration a future treatment being considered & noted that one of the options would cause a potential conflict. My sister-in-law & I were impressed by her resource knowledge & experience.
