The provider was amazing. Not only did he make sure to order all of the relevant testing and prescribe me the best medication he thought there is to treat my chief complaint for the visit, but he also educated me quite a bit on my autoimmune condition and I left his office understanding my body a lot more. I also enjoyed hearing that he is very reachable via myChart and I can reach him on the platform anytime and get a response within 48 hours, and that he is starting the new prescription dosage small and is willing to altar it weekly until we find what works for my body.
So very kind and unhurried
