Dr. Draves is the best doctor I have had in a long time. He always responds to my chart whenever I have a question, no matter how dumb it is. He responds and does not respond like I'm an idiot. He responds with respect and He's the best doctor ever. And I wish that those doctors in St. Louis City could be as good as he is.
