Very polite and agreeable. Because I have a growing memory problem, I'd appreciate some interest from Smita on this topic. I'm seeing a specialist for this. I guess I'm still getting used to the Kadlec system for healthcare where, generally speaking, every provider has their own specialty and no one really has time to ask about other issues. Smita is very good at what she does, but we barely had enough time to get through her issues.
