She is an excellent doctor and always gave me great and honest feedback. In fact, see answered my call at 1AM to talk about the kidney that they were offering me. I really miss not seeing her at Henry Ford after my transplant surgery. I have yet to receive a new nephrologist after 3months of waiting, but I am working on it with Henry Ford.
