The only reason there are any four ratings above regarding to the care provider is that we were unable to have our conversational time during my visit. My insurance company had not approved the MRI yet that I was scheduled for, but she found it most important that that happened that day so that she could Swiftly assess the situation and decide what was next and I appreciated that

Exam was limited, I'm used to anoscopy or more detailed exam during an initial consult. Further testing was only recommended after requesting. Felt that the treatments were all general (ones that I've tried before) and not specific to new issues/concerns
