Met with another member of his team. But she was absolutely awesome was very thorough with her communication on my diagnosis. And provided alternatives on how we can tackle it and get back to work. She was relatable and kind and open about how I can get to the other side of my chronic back pain. Can’t remember her name but def will never forget the experience ! Thank you!
