    I was a bit confused about how to handle my problem. Melissa took time to realize the nature of my situation. She gave me the advice I needed.

    Very knowledgeable, patient and can explain well. And she was interested in what we wanted to do next as opposed to just telling us to do something. We had a lot of questions too.

    This provider makes me feel like I'm teaching her about my underlying diagnosis. I tell the provider my concerns regarding a possible ulcer, and in the last two visits, the concern ends up being an ulcer. Then I'm seeing a wound care specialist, dermatologist, etc., for extra care regarding my initial visit. I would rather see my PCP, who has a better understanding of my condition.
