February 24, 2017Philip P.Verified patient
My appt was a consultation regarding the Verju treatments and as a result of the time she took to talk with me and explain the process, I will be scheduling treatments soon. In addition, her bedside manner and overall approach to wellness is what I have been looking for and will most likely try her as my primary care physician.
