Even though the appointment was just for a physical, he listened to all my problems and he addressed every single one. We made a plan that I was a part of, and he tried to make her appointment as soon as as possible for the things I needed. He also knew that I was bilingual and told me if I was more comfortable with someone Spanish speaking that there was someone in the office. Which was nice but I told him I wanted to advance my english so staying with him was perfectly fine.
