Dr. P. ALWAYS thoroughly explains and follows throughon everything. At my last visit we discussed my need for a cane. Two days later I received a cane script in mail.

She herself moved the appointment and told me I would receive confirmation of the new date, which I did receive. She coughs e easily told me to call the office to reschedule the appointment. That is just one example of her thoroughness and work ethic. She leaves no stone unturned,
