Norelle answered every single question I had and was warm and friendly. I felt very comfortable working with her and would not feel at all hesitant in reaching out again re: a follow up question or concern.

I just wished I would have had a more in-depth conversation about the plan for recovery. I wasn't told much about the actual recovery process before my appointment. We did talk about enough to get me through until the next visit. We also made a plan together for the next week. She was very kind and I felt safe. I just wasn't sure what to expect and what is normal at this stage of recovery.

Even though my PA is seeing a lot if other patients they took the time to thoroughly explain my surgical procedures. They reviewed the benefits as well as the risks and thing I can do to mitigate my risks for a positive out come. They also discussed post-op and what will take place. They assured ne that they will be checking on me throughout my entire stay. They did an excellent job and I felt they they where very genuine.

Norelle Walzer is absolutely wonderful. I have very few positive experiences in healthcare, especially in trans healthcare, but Norelle really listens, answers questions, and is willing to talk through any and all concerns and really get into details about stuff.She has so much energy and compassion and knowledge and I'm so grateful I was able to talk to her and get all the information and reassurance I needed. The University is very lucky to have her, as was I.
