Provider doesn't listen. When I answered a question, she didn't listen to my answer and wrote what she thought she heard. I corrected her twice, and she still didn't get it. So I gave up. She also said that I said things in past appointments that I didn't say.

It was the first time we had met. I felt I had the full attention of the doctor. She asked cogent questions, wanted details and at the end provided several alternatives in priority order. I felt confident about her understanding of my problem and the range of solutions she proposed.

She as well as all the staff were very kind and helpful. I have a 3.5 - 4.5 hour drive and I am usually feeling quite anxious by the time I get to the office so to have such kind staff is very welcoming and heartwarming never mind helpful and appreciated.
