Efficient, friendly, kind office personnel & the best physician I’ve ever had. She’s a great communicator & extremely knowledgeable, instilling confidence in her treatments & recommendations. When/if she has to do more research regarding medical questions, she will admit it and quickly complete the required research so that she can get back to me quickly. When necessary, she will refer me to other medical specialists, and she actively communicates with said specialists to ascertain the results of my visit & the specialists’ treatment plan. She is highly regarded among the medical community because she is so competent and has respect for her patients as well as other medical professionals.
