I first went to see Mary in 1993. At my first appointment, she asked me all about myself, my medical history, my personal history and circumstances, and we talked at length about some of the issues that were problems at the time. I was very surprised at the amount of time that she spent and the level of personal attention she gave me. She spent more than an hour with me. She has been my doctor ever since and has given me the best care I've ever obtained from any medical professional. She is caring, compassionate, and sensitive. There have been a couple of times where we have not seen eye to eye and, to her credit, she listened and kept the dialogue open until we were able to resolve the issue. No other doctor would be willing even to have the conversation. Mary is a shining example of who and how the health care profession can be. I'm grateful to have her for my doctor and, I believe, my friend. Thank you, Mary.
