Nicole saw me the next day after my call requesting to be seen as I feared I had an infection. She did think I had an infection and possibly an abscess. She prescribed antibiotics and a topical cream. She and Amy, her nurse are always kind, professional and give both my husband and I time to express our medical and emotional concerns.
