      Dr. Sarah made me feel so safe and comfortable. She listened to all my concerns, was extremely patient and kind, and I finally feel confident that my health will be not only taken seriously, but solved. I have been in pain for years and after our in depth, un rushed conversation- I know she will take care of me. Thank you! She deserves a raise!! I have never felt so heard by a doctor before

      She was exceptional in all aspects of the visit. She spent time connecting with my daughter, listened carefully and had great explanations and advice for care going forward. She displays a level of care that is rare in today's healthcare system.

      Less than 2 minutes, looking in my ear to make sure it was healed. Very brief interaction with follow up appointment, waited 35 minutes for 2 minute interaction.
