She was extremely patient with me during my visit on that day. She went above and beyond the call of duty. She will be truly miss from the clinic. She is a loving, caring, concerning, and brilliant doctor.

Just trying to get the right mix of pain and nerve medicine in a situation takes much thought and is one of the biggest parts of longevity. A training on first visit was not exspected. Great Doctors just a worried mind and want it right. Thanks Emory
