The nurse and endocrinologist are OK, but very disappointed with the resident lady doctor who came in first. She asked all irreverent, stupid questions, she even fell down from her chair, while backing up, flat on her back, luckily unhurt. Would appreciate very much if I could be examined by Dr. Ambrogini straight, without confronting the resident MD first. Simply wasting my time!!! Very irritating.

Dr. Ambrogini spent the time to explain my condition and all the options for treatment. She laid out her recommendations and asked me for input and questions.

Dr.Ambrogini has been great. I feel she has been very through and made sure she understood my history. She was great to message me in my chart and call me with my results, to clarify things and recommend our next steps. I have been very impressed with how she listens and is trying to figure out what is going on when Dr in the past have given up with it. I highly recommend her.
