Doctor Glisson, his nurse Kristin, And the nurse who came in in all the stuff in the room. This nurse took my vitals. She Informed me about everything. She went over and beyond and brought me a bottle of water. I did not have to ask for it she asked me.Dr. Glisson and nurse Kristin Both Informed me about what I needed to do to keep the blood clot gone.
