Is excellent medical assistant she knows what she’s doing and every time knows my history was very good. Got me scheduled for x-rays but the x-ray Dept very slow and analyzing and repeating results I don’t know what’s wrong. I have to leave for [CITY, STATE] so I have no idea what the results of the x-ray are. This is not Amber‘s fault Sault Ste. Saint Marie problem

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
This provider is my hero. She saved me in my time of extreme pain. I woke up with my ankle in excruciating pain. It hurt so much I could barely walk with a cane or walker. Doctor Amber listened to my information, checked my ankle, gave me a shot for pain, went with my husband pushing me in a wheelchair to get an X-ray at the hospital, no broken bones were found. I was told to keep my foot elevated, put ice on it hourly, and take pain meds as needed. I was advised to return if it didn't improve with time. Fortunately, my ankle recovered fully in about 4 days with following her instructions. I I'm very grateful for Doctor Amber's caring attention and expertise. I truly appreciate all of the amazing care she gave me. In my opinion, she is an excellent doctor. I'm so grateful she was on duty since it led to my total recovery.
