She was very thorough, explained to my husband and I what the tentative diagnosis is, ordered tests to confirm diagnosis and provided treatment to relieve my current pain and discomfort. We were very pleased.

1) When dealing with a 96 yr old, you need to slow down. 2) I felt like he didn't even look at the xray, just had her lift her leg and then pronounced he knows whats wrong.

Emma is very warm and engaging with her patients. She made me feel comfortable and confident in her ability to tend to my condition. I’m grateful for her gentle care.
