    The first time I met her, she was very friendly and professional, but during the procedure she doesn’t come to say hello to you. She enters the room and says we’re ready, but she doesn’t speak to you specifically that made me a little nervous. I wanted to see her face-to-face. After the procedure she comes to quickly tell you the results of how it went and it’s very brief. It’s maybe less than 30 seconds otherwise she’s very professional and very slow and thorough.
