Karen met me in the waiting room herself and walked me to the procedure room. This was my very first time receiving treatment from Karen. She performed a procedure on me that I was really dreading because a probe was going to be inserted through my nose, into my throat and then down to my stomach. Karen thoroughly explained everything she was going to do, how I would feel at each interval prior to beginning the procedure. She put me at ease right from the get-go. She continued to explain as she performed the procedure and told me how well I was doing and where we were time wise. Karen was wonderful. Because I was so at ease, she was able to complete the procedure in the normal time frame. She then made sure I was okay and explained the discharge care to me, again, very thoroughly, then walked me out of the procedure room to the waiting room. Karen was professional, kind and caring. Thank you, from a very appreciative patient.
