July 26, 2022
Diana Besler made a very positive initial contact because she grew up in the neighborhood I live in. She was very kind, thorough, willing to discuss possibilities and contacted another office of one of the best doctors to see. Unfortunately by the time I was seeing Dr. Besler my problem was not as noticeable or as frequent as it had been in the first months I was having issues [date] I was very thankful to have been referred to her. It was a very helpful and positive experience, an answer to prayer. Not all doctors have good "bedside manners".
