    I don't think there's anyone else I would see except Dr. Munger.
  • Jun, 5 2024
    Caveat: I have a backlog of concerns that haven't been adequately addresses by prior healthcare systems. I do feel like, although we can't solve it all in one visit, she heard my concerns to keep in mind for future visits.

    Dr. Munger was incredible! She really listened to the health issues I am having. She showed that she really wants to provide a solid diagnosis for me so I can know why I am having these symptoms and how to proceed. I was extremely impressed on how much time she spent with me. I didn't realize the time, until we left the office. That is really impressive to me. I sincerely appreciate her and what she has done, and is doing, to really help me feel better. Thank you.

    Dr. Munger was very attentive and listened with empathy. We discussed other medication options for my disease as well as side effects. I wanted to continue on my current plan and she told me her concerns but informed me we can, but I would need to be seen in office sooner and more frequent testing (6 months versus 1 year for MRI). I appreciate her willingness to listen and let me participate in my care decision making.
