    Callan the PA was incredible. I was so nervous for this appointment, but I left very happy I went. She was extremely thorough, competent, gentle, and kind. I'm sure she must see so many patients in a day, but she made me feel like I was her only patient - very unrushed, listened to every concern, asked follow up questions, and took the time to go through all of the possibilities and options with me. She was honest and straightforward about the worst case scenario possibilities, while at the same time making me feel at ease about it, and she is very knowledgeable about all the treatment options. She was also very gentle with the exam and talked me through the whole process. I would highly recommend her and would like to see her for all of my visits - she's worth the drive!

    The whole visit went well. I had some additional problems unrelated to my surgery. PA Kosnik discussed everything and sent the necessary scripts to my pharmacy. I am doing much better after just 2 days on the medications.
