when I left Dr Horwitz's office I was overwhelmed with gratitude for the kind attention she gave me and for working so hard to schedule me into future appointments which were important to my case. Thank you, Dr. Horwitz. I am so lucky to have been referred to you by Dr. Mark Obenrader, my family phisician.
