I highly recommend Dr Steele. She was amazing! She not only listened to me explain the purpose of my visit but picked up on comments I made and asked questions about it. She really cares.

I did appreciate how Melinda Steel tried to get to know her patient and look for any signs of problems in the conversation through her questions before she even asked the medical ones. I wouldn't recommend because just generally I am not the type to recomend doctors.
