Patient Reviews
Jul 30, 2022
Doctor Benson reviewed the records that were on file and explained to me how they related to my kidney functions. He was very easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable. He went over my test and explained that it was in the normal range. I was given a lab request for further blood work and scheduled another visit in 6 months. I really felt like I was in good hands with Doctor Benson.
