I may have the Medical Assistant's name wrong but I think it was Geraldine. I wanted to check my weight on the way out. She reckonized me and my husband from prior visits to Dr ( ). We were having difficulty with the scale when she happened to pass by and offered to assist. EVERY time we see her she is so very gracious and nice and make's us feel special. Her warm personality is very welcoming.
