    The waiting for the doctor oftentimes is a long period of time. That being said, when I'm with the doctor, there is never a rush. There is never a hurry. I feel that I'm being heard and I feel very good about the fact that I can talk to the doctor as an individual that I'm very close with. So I understand the wait, but it's worth the wait because of how good a doctor he is.
