The doctor was also amazing with her. Super friendly and knowledgeable about what the tests show and what he would recommend with her case due to her genetic testing and the family history concerning the visit.

The doctor did well keeping the summary of the ultrasound quick as there was no concern. He was kind a straight to the point. He was very willing to answer any questions, but I did not have any since I have had the procedure performed before. The ultrasound tech was amazing as well!! She seemed very experienced!
