“The provider paid attention to what I was saying and answered questions I had about the treatment plan. It was tailored to me and provider took the time to make sure I understand my next steps. ”

“Provider was very kind. I was a little disappointed with figuring out a clear path and timeline of next steps to continue medications I had already been prescribed, as in addition to the very in-depth evaluation additional blood work and tests were required to fill medication. Overall would recommend just be sure you give time before you need your medication.”
