    Absolutely love how I was treated. The procedure I needed was extremely stressful and difficult, but I was treated with patience, care, support, and respect the entire time. I was explicitly told my rights and I was checked in on the entire time. Though it was a very difficult procedure, it was so much better than it could have been thanks to Dr. Clifton.

    Dr Clifton listens and she gives clear, well-informed answers. She's very efficient, too, and doesn't waste time with idle comments. I must drive a long distance to see her, but it's well worth it.
