This N/P n/p Clay no only told me what she thought, but she also suggested a completely different cause for the problem that no one had mentioned to me before. I was in the hospital with the same problem 3 weeks before this visit with n/p Clay. I am looking forward to working with her.

Overall, the follow-up appointment was beneficial and I was able to have all of my medical questions answered. However, I was slightly displease by the fact that I was kept waiting in the telehealth video link for 25 minutes past my appointment time for the NP to finally join the call, which was then completed in less than 10 min. If it is a requirement that patients join the link early to ensure on-time "arrival" to their appointment, I believe the healthcare providers should be held to the same standard. At the very least, there should be a notice that they will be late rather than letting the situation get to the point where I needed to call to make sure I was not forgotten about. It is worth noting, the receptionist was kind and helpful during my call to see if the NP was still available for my appt.

I am at an age when all doctors and policemen look like high school kids - that works both ways too. NP Joni Clay is the ultimate professional and shows how well she is trained, qualified and experienced. She took great care to understand my responses to the test results and discussed what they mean in real-life terms before helping me understand the best course of action for my specific case/lifestyle.
