Sarah is excellent. She is concerned, knowledgeable and engaged. From my first appointment with her through this one she has been thorough, listened, explained everything, answered all my questions fully, and addressed any needs or issues. Sarah truly cares about her patients and their outcome. She made a difficult situation more tolerable.

She was excellent at explaining the results of ultrasound and xray. She thoroughly explained the options for treatment. Then she left the room for a few minute while my daughter and I discusssed what I I should do.; then she returned to find out our decision. Then she gave me the shot. She is very, very good.

For the first time in years I felt like my doctor cared and actually took time to listen. I felt like I was finally being seen and heard. I have a very complex disease and Dr Wishon was very knowledgeable and understanding and explained things in a way my husband and zI could understand. I cried when she walked out from relief that I felt validated in my pain.
