My OB was out of office, but I was able to schedule with the nurse practitioner. Her medical assistant was very kind and efficient. The nurse practitioner was also very efficient. It was a quick visit and I got what I needed to get done. Thank you!
Very thorough explanation
I appreciated that she listened to my questions and provided thorough answers. She didn't try to push birth control or anything else on me. And ordered tests in advance so I wouldn't have to come back but also am within insurance coverage.
