Very personable and spent time answering all of my questions and concerns.
By the time I left the premises we had a plan of action to address my back pain issues, along with 2 future appointments scheduled.
A very efficient office visit, indeed!

My first thought was that she looked very young, but as we began talking, I was impressed with her presence and by the end of our conversation I could see that she was not only very professional but also polite and Caring. I have to say that she not only fully understood what I explained was wrong but showed me empathy.
