Anna listened to me and I didn't feel any judgment when explaining what was going on which has happened in the past with other providers at other locations. She did everything she thought was relevant to what was going on right away and explained why we were doing what was being done.

She is genuine and has a good sense of humor

She’s just always so kind. She never makes the appointment feel rushed. She listens and hears what I have to say. As a health care provider myself, she meets me at my level of knowledge and doesn’t talk up or down to me. She takes time to listen and to explain. She makes sure my questions are answered, issues addressed and treatment plan is clear.
