Melanie Hottel is exceptional. She is kind, caring and explains everything well. Very professional and listens to me. She looks at me when speaking and pays attention to what I have to say which is very important to me. The medical assistant that works with her is also babulous. I forgot to get her name but have had her take care of me twice and both times she has been wonderful and caring.
