Dr Nester is the best! She comes into the appt so well-prepared: she's familiar with what was discussed during our last visit, re-visits concerns to be sure they have been resolved and asks questions about related or new developments. She provides answers to my mom clearly and patiently. I'm really so grateful that she's our doctor.
