Dr Handa is the best doctor I have ever been too. She is wise, sympathetic to the patients needs, and very informative. She uses her knowledge mixed with personal discernment to help us. She hasn't ever steered us (my family and I) in the wring direction. You can tell she truly cares. You aren't just a number (which happens so much these days). She reminds me of the way all doctors should be (although that unfortunately is not the case). She is walking in her calling and you can tell.
