I’m not impressed with much or any one, but Dr. Gavini gave me hope and explanations first vist and set a plan in motion then and there. I went in feeling overwhelmed and defeated and came out with hope and optimism. No sugar coating just strait forward. She offered solid solutions rather than pushing meds and game plan to treat issue not just the symptoms. She is easy to talk to and even better she actually listened
