“She was very up front and stern with her decisions for the proper medications that she knew what would be better in my situation. She was very honest about what medications she did not believe would be good for me. She helped me understand her decisions and explained the reason’s why. I was very content with just the first visit and I am excited to see the progress that I will make under her care. Great experience over all. ”
