I love having her as a doctor. She is a very kind, caring, professional, and smart in her profession. I say she has saved my life twice. I couldn't find a colon/rectal doctor that would see me. She did.. She has found the cancer within seconds. Did a colonoscopy and biopsy the in the suspected area and it turned out positive. If I could give more stars I would. She has helped me tremendously. I had colon/rectal cancer that isn't showing on scans anymore thank to the oncologist I had, but I was in terrible pain. Afterwards I got a infection from a fistlua. She diverted my colon so now I'm on a colostomy bag that can (hopefully) be put back to normal depending on how the radiationized skin is in the area. Still have discomfort but pain is gone and best of all finally off pain meds after about 2 yrs. as to where I was starting to eat morphine like tic tacks. I was able to ween myself off of them and now none. So it's by choice to get off pain meds (cause of my hate toward pills and medications) but I couldn't do it without her doing the operation and she has done a great job. Healing went great, she checked on me to see if everything was going well. I see her as more then a doctor but as a friend. She truely is the best of doctors.

She is by far the kindest, most caring doctor I've met. Ever. I had a very good experience considering why I had to see her. I will keep her as long as I can.
