I had a very good experience. I moved to GA a couple of years ago. I was really sad to leave my pcp from CO. I have been searching for a pcp to match my last one and praise the universe I did with Dr Laura. I'm thrilled to have such a knowledgeable and caring human helping me with my health. Woo-hoo
