    My appointment was outstanding with Dr Cornett. After years of not being heard or concerns being addressed by my previous hematologist, I finally was heard. I had more discussion and thoughts in this one appoints then all my other appointments I've had over the last 7+ years combined. Thank you!

    S she told me right up front that this medication was going to raise my blood sugar before I ever took it. I just really like being informed like that in advance and I just felt really comfortable about the whole thing.
