They confirmed my appointment on ZD but actually rescheduled me to later in the day. They also had me see the PA instead of Dr. La Cognata (tisk tisk). I told Olivia, but, feel free to follow up. Loved the PA I saw!

It is so nice to have a Dr. take the time to talk to his patient & get to know them. I do not feel like I'm being rushed through the door so he can see another patient. Thank you Dr. LaCognata, for being understanding & a breath of fresh air when I've been seeing Dr. you & your PA to.
