Sam was amazing. I was expecting to be treated with dismissiveness regarding my health concerns and continuing/modifying my previous care team's treatment plan, but Sam quickly grasped the situation, addressing my concerns decisively, even to the point of going out of his way to make sure I had the assistance and resources I needed, including multiple contingencies. I went in terrified and came out relieved.
