Dr. Mathews spent almost an hour with us and our daughter discussing different treatments and reasoning for why she is going through what she is going through. She was so patient and understanding, and never made us feel like we were keeping her from anything. I am so grateful for her kindness and know that our daughter is getting the best treatment she can. Thank you so much for helping us through this scary time.
