    Unfortunately, a cancellation by me due to illness and a cancellation by Dr Goosen made completing a physical very delayed this year.

    Dr. Goossen listens! After discussing my issues with being perimenopausal, she listened to my concerns and presented me with two options and talked through both in detail. She also shared with me a current study related to my situation that was very helpful. I appreciate Dr. Goossen's knowledge and medical advice.
