My provider showed great care and compassion for the multiple things that were going wrong or sideways, you might say in my life in medical and mental stresses and took the time necessary to be sure I did not need other problems addressed so we could focus on what questions I brought. But also, she acknowledged the other things she was noticing that she was not ignoring them but also understood for me. They were not important enough to divert attention to

Dr Elza takes her time and I never feel rushed when I am talking to her. We talked about diet and exercise so I can get my weight down and lower my cholesterol. I will go back in 6 months to see her.
