Heike Schmolk is very good at listening to my needs and questions. She spent the time, not only to be professional about my situation, but also was very personable. She explained my options in easy to understand words and conversation.

I appreciate her but there’s not much she can actually do to help me heal from what I’m still dealing with. She’s just monitoring me at this point. I’ve used alternative medicine modalities that actually work to help my body heal itself and I’m continuing down that path.

She is a very nice person that connects not only on a professional level, but on a personal level that makes a person very comfortable, which helps make it easy to share personal information.
