“I saw Dr. Sandberg’s NP Brittany Rodriguez. Brittany is an angel, so kind, so thorough and made sure she really listened and explained everything to me and made sure I understood everything we discussed. I ended up getting an endoscopy by Dr. Sandberg and it was a very great experience. I was able to get to the bottom of the flair ups I was having (gallstones), thank you Dr. Sandberg and NP Rodriquez for your help!?”
