I don't know what happened today but she was not available for my appointment. Total time with a blood draw, was 2.5 hrs. Only after I went looking for Dr Dinner I saw a diffrent physician. What ever was the problem it was upsetting. Eventually I saw Dr Dinner for a few minutes as I was walking out.

Outstanding expertise in her specialty. I have immense faith in her medical advice and decision making. She involves me in the decisions regarding my care. She consults with her peers to try to determine the best pathway to cure me when there is limited data to inform her of what path to choose. She is also open to novel and cutting edge methods of care.
