    She made us comfortable, answered all the questions even if the answers were not the ones we wanted to hear. She did not act superior to us just because she has an MD like many other doctors do. She showed true concern and seemed to want nothing but the best for us.

    Dr. P was very professional and made me feel at ease. Many of us go to the Dr. because we can't do anything at home to feel better. Going to the Dr. is stressful, you never know what to expect, Dr P made me feel comfortable from the start.
