“ I suffer from debilitating anxiety and panic-attacks. I just changed my PCP to a new doctor to see if he would be better equipped to help me, however I was gravely disappointed. When I spoke with Dr. Sauda I could tell she was actually listening to me, not brushing what I said off, and was EXTREMELY helpful. She tweaked my meds, and I now feel like I can do most anything! Thank you Dr. Sauda, and thank you Zocdoc!”
