Dr. Baird was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, a good listener, came up with some practical ideas, and I think he did a great job. The lady who checked us in and out was extremely helpful in getting us set up with My Chart. I'm not sure I remember her name, but she was really over the top helpful.
