I love Dr. Paines calm demeanor and careful explanation of what to expect during the whole encounter. When she asked what questions I had, I like most patients said none but instead of just moving on she still stopped to explain everything in grave detail. Clearly has the ability to read the patient and meet them where they are. Much appreciated!
