I was having problems and nothing showed up at my GP’s office or at urgent care. After a year and half I finally made an appointment with Dr. T. She found the problem, treated it gave me OTC medication to hopefully prevent it from coming back. She was kind, gentle and took her time to explain everything. Thanks Dr. T. I feel so much better.
