In general, I found the professionals and procedures involved with my appointment to be comfortable to talk with and informative about what the appointment goal was. The flow of the appointment was interrupted a couple times, but did not seem to cause any problems.

Dr Olney is fabulous. Hard to schedule as his load is heavy with such limited neurology access in Providence and PDX

Dr. Olney is both kind and friendly in dealing with a my husbands LBD. That is not easy. He is open to ideas and seems genuinely concerned not just for my husband, but for me as his caregiver.

The care team at this ALS clinic had to face me in my most trying time and worry. It is a huge challenge for them, since the grim news could be on the way. The team's positivity was excellent, which helped alleviate my worries.
