Dr. Rodriguez has done surgery on my brain twice and I trust her completely, I don't trust doctors or nurses. They have to earn it, but Dr. Rodriguez and her nurse Ashley are the only reason I'm still at that hospital but I will be finding an oncologist somewhere else and a pulmonary doctor and someone to do surgery on my hernia, but Dr. Rodriguez and her nurse Ashley are the best in the building. I promise.

We were unsure how to stay connected with phone call since we called in to office and connection apparently times out if doc does not start the appointment. Connection window of time may need to be expanded. Quality of audio was good, and video was also, used my iPad. I forgot to ask and show her a stitch that may need removed, not sure. There is a slight pucker in it, will send message to her in my chart about it. It is healing well, no worries, was supposed to ask about it.
