That Dr Smits makes me feel like I’m talking to a best friend I’ve had my whole life, rather than my doctor. It’s a nonjudgmental experience, she’s so kind, she explains things in a very clear and understandable manner without making me feel uncomfortable or awkward if I have follow up questions about anything, she’s always treated me and my whole family with the up most respect.
