    "I sent her a history of health and list of my meds before my visit. I noticed she had it printed and highlighted several items. I was pleased that she really did take the time to read my history and actively take an interest in my condition. She spoke to me with respect and kindness and didn't judge me. She provided a wealth of information and several options for moving forward. She didn't put any pressure on me to make a decision right away. She did order lab work and a stool sample to get things started to fine the reason she get a solution. I didn't get in sooner as I specifically waited for availability with her and a break in my schedule. I'm confident she is going to keep looking for a solution. I'm glad I waited for her."
