Carissa has been my provider for a few years. She takes her time to understand any current issues I have or new developments that I need to bring to her attention. I do not love getting poked at during these times - but Carissa makes the experience as informative and enjoyable as possible. She is one provider that your leadership needs to take notice of and ensure she does not look for greener pastures.

Seemed to be in a little bit of a hurry. I know she needs to keep on schedule but maybe rushed through my checkup a little bit. Otherwise she is wonderful.
