Everything went smoothly
I think she could have explained more detail why; the medicine could be giving me pain result.
Shiva gives me time to ask my questions and gives clear explanations. Her time must be at a premium given the constraints expected by the insurance companies, but I am grateful for her patience and respect her knowledge and abilities.
