“Dr. Shrestha spent ample time with me to determine my diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica She completely understood my pain and reflected back on every thing I had mentioned. i had a lot of vague symptoms which she was very familiar with, ran a number of blood tests to rule out other diagnoses and prescribed medication which worked very quickly and effectively. She wants to see me again in a few weeks and I was able to get an appointment. Overall I felt we connected very well and I am very grateful that I got to see her and benefit from her knowledge and treatment.”
