She was infection. Interested in my problem. She approached the diagnosis from a clinical and intellectual position. She explained everything. She was also thorough, gentle with a joint inhection.
She is great, she trys very hard to get you back to normal and is great at communicating so that patient can understand what she is telling them. I would be lost without her.
She was very easy to work with and made my daughter feel comfortable. She quickly diagnosed her issue and set us up for PT to get back to activities.
