    I think that that whole experience was wonderful. It's a very well-oiled machine over there. From the x-ray technicians to the medical assistants to the doctor coming in, it all like seemed flawlessly, so to speak. But the one thing for me, and this is personal, my husband passed away and Cooper was a hospital. He was in all the time. And I have to say that that whole building reminds me of walking into a hospital. So for me, now I'm not saying for anybody else, but for me, that's the one thing I don't like about going there. So, but that's like I said, neither here nor there. For the whole experience was wonderful, though, I have to say that. So except for the fact that it looks like a hospital. But all right, well, thank you.
