    I haven't had an in-person annual checkup appointment in years with Dr Hauer due to the pandemic and scheduling challenges on my side. I was impressed with how thorough Dr Hauer was at getting a full and complete picture of all the things going on in my life that can impact health. And how sensitive and thoughtful she was in discussing some of the next steps around what I need to do to further improve my health. I have always appreciated Dr Hauer's professionalism and knowledge, so I was not surprised with how this visit went - just want to say that I was really happy to have this thorough time for my checkup with her.
