She put us both at ease just knowing that little piece of the pie. She contacted my gynecologist to let her know that I needed to see her ASAP. She even called me after to give me the unofficial results of CT urogram that she ordered. She also explained to me how my urine specimen could have gotten contaminated. Her assistant Beth was just as amazing! I would give them an 11 out of 10 if I could.
