Dr Virina immediately put me at ease. As a sexual abuse survivor, gyne visits can be stressful but I felt absolutely comfortable in her care. She has such a clear way of explaining her treatment rationale, while still stressing that I had choices.

She actually took her time to listen, explain and placed orders for the labs I truly wanted to test to help understand why I was having multiple miscarriages. Very personable and warm. That can’t be taught and she’s a true service provider.
