Here's a version tailored for a survey comment:Dr. Tibar and her staff provided excellent care! She thoroughly examined me, ordered necessary tests, and referred me to a specialist for further treatment. I'm relieved to finally be on the path to addressing my hand pain. Great experience overall

I had to wait 1 hour and 15 minutes past my appointment time. She told me that her other patients held her back. So my appointment was cut short. Then she forgot to come back to check in on me. She apologized for that mistake.
