Dr Amy Powell arranged the zoom meeting immediately after my test results came out. I know she is always busy and it is difficult to make an appointment in a week or two. So I greatly appreciate Dr Powell arranged this meeting. It was a great meeting to understand the test results, my condition and further test/treatment.

Dr. Powell is very professional, knowledgeable and kind. I saw her initially approx 5 yrs ago, but my spouse's insurance plan would only cover IHC docs. Last year, I got Medicare and saw Dr. Powell for a second opinion on my knees. She recommended that I see an Ortho surgeon. I did and I needed both knees replaced! I saw Dr. Gililland who did my knee replacements. Dr. Powell coordinated my care. My most recent visit I saw her due to my Dexa scan test results. My #s were lower and I saw Dr Powell for her opinion. She said my results weren't as disconcerting as I thought. She said my endocrinologist was good to continue seeing and get my Prolia injections that he prescribed for me.

I had probably not explained my pain level effectively. I was somewhat surprised that Dr. Powell told me to resume all activities. I have been active and my pain level has stayed consistent. The advise was, I'm sure due to my lack of communication. All in all I have a high confidence in the advice but I'm hoping the pain somewhat subsides.
