She listened to my concerns patiently and gave me suggestions on what I can do to mitigate my issues naturally and with the help of therapy.
She is incredibly kind, understanding and knowledgeable. She gives 100% of her attention and is very thorough.
I am now 17 weeks pregnant, and this was the first time I felt heard and seen in my pregnancy. Thank you for listening to me and conducting tests that I requested in addition to doing your due diligence.

My nurse practitioner was the sweetest most amazing lady ever and made my first time so comfortable and not scary.
Everything went well; they checked what they said they would check. Seems like a normal postpartum appointment.
She answered questions well but given she has seen me multiple times before, it seemed she didn’t know who I was. It would’ve been nice to have a more personal experience.
