Hematologist recommended I start [MEDICATION] three times a week starting after it is approved by my insurance. I would have like for Dr. Veeraputhiran to have gone over the possible side effects of these injections during my appointment with him on [DATE AND TIME].

Dr. Veeraputharin and staff always do an extraordinary Job. When I had to go to Infusion B for a shot, Teresa did a wonderful job of taking care of my needs and keeping me posted.
