Good services to my satisfaction
I didn't really like the physician.
Good care by the health care provider
Dr is new to me and just trying to get to know her and her response to questions. Will take a few more visits to see how it goes--too soon to give an opinion of the person
Dr. Paul was caring and clear.
She was a good doctor
She asked questions and listened
Well organized operation
Efficient and thorough care
She took her time with me, and was very kind .
