Doctor seemed to be in a rush. She didn't listen to my concerns when she came in the first time. She was more attentive when she came in the second time( after eye exam).

Dr. Sappenfield is one of my favorite healthcare providers. She is calm, patient, knowledgeable, and kind. I trust her. Although I really like HREA, if Dr Sappenfield left, I would follow her to her next practice.
