I have endometriosis and she and her staff have been extremely caring and compassionate to myself and my husband. She doesn't mind him attending my appointments with her...in fact she welcomes it!!!
The very first appointment with her I didn't have my husband there. She read my complaints from the nurse and when she walked in she asked me if anybody was out there in the waiting area. When I responded no, she had one of her nurses there in the room with me while the pelvic exam was going on to hold my hand and be my support system!!! I squeezed the nurse's hand so hard but she didn't complain. I was crying, nearly screaming, due to the pain and agony that I was in. During the exam and afterwards she was apologetic--sorry that she had caused me so much pain.
She let me gather my composure and then we talked about what she thought was going on and options. This is the first obgyn to fully understand my pain from endometriosis. She is a wonderful caring doctor and I wouldn't trade her for a million dollars and the world!!!!
