    I felt very rushed, not heard and like my questions were an inconvenience

  • Apr 2, 2025

    Again, all good experiences.

  • Feb 26, 2025

    I saw Jennifer and she told me the worst possible news and jumped to conclusions about my diagnosis without accurately knowing what was wrong. She had little to no empathy or remorse about my reaction, as she made me hysterical. I will not be seeing her again.
