My Provider answered so many questions for me and completely took her time. I did not feel rushed at all, however I felt a little frustrated. I know my frustration is not completely with my Provider. I really have had health challenges the past 6 months and it is hard to hear that it is just the way it is with menopause/getting older. I know something has changed and because I don't feel good, am trying all kinds of things but am so tired and gaining wait so rapidly, I hoped to get some direction or help. In all fairness, Dr. Brown did order bloodwork for some things but I hoped to get a better picture or go a little farther based on how desparate I am.

Dr. Brown was very nice. I came in very nervous because I hadn't been to the doctors since the start of Covid. She was very reassuring and made sure to let me know I didn't have to get undressed or feel anxious about the appointment which calmed me a lot. She was attentive to all the concerns I bought up as well
