    I was confused why Dr. Frame had recommended a statin despite the fact that all cholesterol data had improved since the last visit.Dr. Frame thoroughly explained why an algorithm was recommending this medication-- being one year older and changes in blood pressure! I was able to share additional health data on my blood pressure so we could make a more informed decision. She also discussed dietary changes that would address blood pressure. I really appreciated her being willing to address my confusion about the initial recommendation without being defensive.
