I would highly recommend Dr. Maria Skamagas. She is well behaved and a good physician. She listens and answers all questions very well.
One of the best doctors, if not the best doctor, I've ever had. Thorough, great at listening AND explaining, generous with her time, loves what she does and you can see her mind at work.
