She was prepared for our meeting, had reviewed my medical history thoroughly before the visit and was ready to articulate her advice clearly. She did so in a manner that was engaging, thorough, caring and professional. Dr. Lippitt delivered exactly what we had hoped our meeting would: trust, reassurance and the confidence to make the best decision for my care.
