I was very nervous being this was my first visit. Dr. Chesson's and his nurse was very professional, patient and I felt relieved knowing that they were to assure me my health was top priority. I wasn't rush and they took time explaining procedures for me to consider. I would defiantly recommend Dr. Chesson's.
Dr. Chesson is such a good doctor. He takes the time to listen to you. I was so comfortable talking to him about my issues. He has gotten me back on track and I am feeling a lot better. His assistant, Karen is so kind. She has a very pleasant personality and is also very helpful. These two make a great team! I highly advise any woman if she is having some sort of female issue, to go see Dr. Chesson.
