I feel like he had no remorse for me in my situation l. I was in a domestic relationship and just had the courage to leave about a week ago. But my injuries I sustained is still here and it puts me in a depressed state but leaving today with no help I really wish I never came. It was like he didn’t even care. I didn’t need him to feel sorry for me I just wanted the help, I am the one that has to look at my injury everyday and each time I tried to come to my appointment I made the situation at home worse so I just didn’t bother to show that is the reason why I couldn’t get to any because I was forced to stay

The entire team that took care of me during my appointment were professional, courteous, and respective of my time. Thank you.
