Reviews
A relaxed consultation, I felt that the doctor was very receptive to my reporting and it was a simple matter to find a way to move forward with which we both were comfortable.
I was so relieved to speak to a medical expert on Crohn's and Weight loss medication who did not immediately reject me because they had actual medical knowledge regarding using this medication.
Extremely helpful and willing to answer any questions I had.
