Sandy Johnson's concern for my fractured left scapula was genuine. She explained very clearly the xray results, the fracture had healed, the shoulder joint I was concerned about looked okay in the xray hence I could resume my normal day to day functions. Her projected confidence aided in helping me regain my that I would be okay going forward. she also left the door open by saying for any future concerns not to hesitate to contact them.
