I PARTICULARLY LIKE THAT DR TERUYA INTERACTS WITH ME AS ONE HUMAN BEING TO ANOTHER. SO MANY OF MY DOCTORS DON'T EVEN LOOK AT ME. THEY JUST TYPE INTO THE COMPUTER AND TALK IN A MONOTONE. SHE ALSO VERY IMPORTANTLY GAVE ME TIME TO DISCUSS MY QUESTIONS. I KNOW FROM MY DAUGHTER'S EXPERIENCE IN HER PRACTICE WHICH SHE SOLD TO A CORPORATION THAT 15 MINUTES IS TOPS AND THIS ISN'T RIGHT. AGAIN, DR TERUYA GAVE ME THE TIME AND HER INTEREST THAT I NEEDED AND I GREATLY APPRECIATE THAT.
