Good afternoon. So, I felt very welcomed by the professionals, I felt protected. I'm still in the middle of the treatment. I haven't had a real conclusion about what's happening to me yet, right? But I believe that in this journey we're on of investigation, I will be able to reach a final understanding of what is going on with me. But I am happy with all the treatment I have received up to this point

I was diagnosed with mild sleep apnea and the sleep study analysis listed four possible treatment paths. Dr. Kothari insisted that the only treatment option was a Cpap and would not discuss any other options with me. I want to try a couple of the other treatment options and use the Cpap as a final option if the others don't work.

Dr. Kothari is the most efficient doctor I've ever had. She listens, she always listens. She does not give me extra tests to take when I'm not having any symptoms and she knows I'm old and she takes very good care. She is my my very favorite physician. I've told her that. Thank you so much.

I see many of the Wellstar doctors throughout the year. This is the first time i have encountered a person so rude at the registration desk. If I asked a question, she would not look up at me, answered gruffly and acted like she hated her job. Never a smile, just nasty looks and blunt, sharp answers. My first time seeing this doctor so I was somewhat nervous. A pleasant person at desk who acted like they were there to assist would have meant a lot.
