    NP Nikita Bala was extremely thorough in her analysis of my information, as I saw her for medical clearance for tennis elbow surgery. She really took the time to review my information, explained the numbers about my test results, you could see her genuine concern for her patient and she answered a few more questions about my thinning hair (not pertaining to the visit).Grade A+++ for her!
