“Dr. Lee was very attentive and such a friendly person. He said he was going to take care of me and I believe him.”

“The doctor seems very knowledgeable and asks helpful questions. I’m not a fan of having to tell everything to the nurse and then to the doctor though; I feel like I miss information the second time since I feel like I shouldn’t repeat myself. It would be better if they came in together.”
