[redacted] The doctor I've seen was extremely knowledgeable and very insightful in the situation that I'm dealing with. Explained everything to be not so much in medical terms, but in terms to which I would understand, which is much appreciated. And overall, the experience is great throughout the whole situation from the receptionist to the nurse to the doctor. I would definitely recommend anybody that has any cascading issues in this phase of life that I would definitely recommend them to go see you people.
