Exercise and eat well, so there was really no discussion. However, I did discuss that I would like to change eating habits to see if I can lower cholesterol naturally. And he was in agreement.

Debbie [PA] is an amazing caregiver. She goes the extra mile to listen, research, confer, and propose treatment. I am always impressed by the degree to which she goes to make me feel heard and participate in my care.
