She walks in the room, washes her hands with a smile or a hug and listens to you problems . She looks at you with a genuine look of concern , she then begins to examine you. Then more questions, then she orders test if she fells that will provide her with an educated diagnosis. If tests are not needed, she WILL NOT order them. If she prescribe some medication, her staff will normally call you within 3 days to see how you are doing. (That doesn't happen often and that is great customer care.) TOO bad other doctors don't care enough about their patients to do a courtesy call to see how they are doing.
