Both the NP and physician were so kind and caring. They helped me understand better the issues I am having. I really appreciated their care and concern. They discussed things we could try but left the final decision up to me.

[..... ] When I met Dr Susaki-Adams it further solidified my view of this absolutely wonderful staff. It is very obvious the culture of professionalism and the fact that everyone seems to enjoy their job and are all very knowledgeable.
