Dr Gavini is absolutely amazing. She takes time to answer every single question I have. Reassure me. Walk me through every detail. And this appointment when I told her how well I was doing, she was practically vibrating with excitement. It’s unbelievably rare to find a doctor that listens, to find one that listens and actually care is just short of miracle.
