Dr. Sandford is a Godsend. She's very professional yet, very accessible. I know it can be difficult dealing with 'special needs'. But she does her job well! Taking time to listen and answer questions or offer questions that I may not have consider is helpful. She is thorough explaining any medications, how they work and any side effects to be aware of. WOW! She's AWESOME!
