    She was able to connect me with the Medtronic rep who assisted me in starting the new sensor which communicated with my insulin pump. Very helpful

    Excellent visit with NP and I left the clinic with high spirits as it was such a refreshing experience to have a provider listen and understand my concerns with a plan in place for me to go forward. I have done fifty years of nursing and so relieved a provider understood my concerns.

    Not a solution based visit, nor where there any meaning conversation around my concerns.
