5.0 star star star star starMy appointment was about bone health and receiving a prolia injection. She was caring, wanted to know my background since I’m from Texas. Explained why she needed certain blood tests, etc and wanted to ensure I did not miss my next prolia injection and why the importance of sticking with the 6 months injection. I also liked that she told me she would call me with the test results when and what time of day she would call.
