IUD Insertion / Removal

It was my first time meeting with my physician and immediately I was comfortable with her. I’ve never had that experience with someone. She explained her every move without me even asking she also even called me after I left to make sure that I understood my visit and to me, I need something like that because in the moment a lot of times I miss information because it’s too much at one time for her to do that. I actually feel like she cared about my well-being and that is so rare these days so I will see her every single time and I think she Was more than awesome. Definitely wish I would have found her a lot sooner.

Gynecological Problem Visit

I was seen quickly and was impressed with Selena’s knowledge and appreciated her gentle compassionate bedside manner.
