    She was great. Always let me know what was going on, what is good, and what is bread.

    It was a good experience because although it was hard to hear, Dr. Pensenson Told me the truth about my condition, the facts about kidney donor surgery, being far more intense than people tell you, and Took seriously the bad symptoms I had after commuting to work the first time This was the first time I have heard any truth from any doctor since I began the kidney donation process, and it was very refreshing. She is the first Doctor Who thanked me for donating and showed any kind of empathy whatsoever with my situation. She also offered to write me a letter from my work Asking that I not commute for several weeks I didn't even expect this, but I am very glad for it. And she did it in an extremely timely manner.

    Sometimes she does not have my labs on hand but I don't know who's responsibility it is to get them for her.

    Dr. Did not bother to introduce herself or inquire about my concerns regarding the scary MRI and ultrasound findings. Initially She was quite condescending and dismissive of our questions. We were there to rule out PolyCystic kidney disease and she eventually agreed to testing.

    This may be the 2d or 3d time I have seen her. She has warmed up to me. The other times she seemed a bit shy or distant, I appreciate her.

    Exceptional nephrologist with a perfect personality, caring attitude. Dr. Pesenson advocated to have me admitted to the Mayo Clinic where my major hypertension issues were solved.
