I scheduled on Saturday evening, and Leah was able to see me early Sunday morning. I am changing providers and was looking for a second knowledgable opinion. Leah listened and understood the facts, and provided invaluable insight to assist me in making an informed decision. Leah has a rare coupling of technical knowledged and human skills (sympathy, patience, positive attitude). Great experience.
