Azez was sweet, and very patient, but didn't really understand all of what she was reading on my report, and didn't have thorough answers to my questions. She literally googled the questions I asked her. I think asking the doctor would have been more appropriate than googling. Then I ended up googling on my phone while she was on the computer and answering my questions for her. It would have been nice to have someone that a little more knowledge to ask my questions to.

She was very considerate and listened to my concerns. She also helped physically with my surgery and that was appreciated as well. She had hands on first knowledge of what was going on post surgery with Dr. Nguyen
