Review for Dr. Schiff
Dr. Ramirez explained everything at our first meeting. She explained my options, risk and what to expect after. On day of surgery she came in before. I left a message for her after my results and she called back the same day. We had a telehealth 2 weeks after procedure.

Doctor Sun is confident and conducts the exam expeditiously. This puts me in a positive frame of mind. I did not feel rushed. I just felt that she knows what she's doing. I'm happy not to linger at any doctor's appointment.
