I have the highest regard for Laura Schmidt. In addition to being highly qualified and professional at what she does, she is kind, courteous and helpful. Laura Schmidt spent as much time as needed to ensure that I had all the information related to my care. I never felt rushed and appreciated the time she spent with me. Excellent job!
