    Megan Buchanan is a gem of a provider. She made me feel so comfortable, like she wasn¿t rushing through to the next person but rather completely focused on my care. I had a lot of lab work & she took the time to show & explain each of them to me. She was really looking at the whole picture & I so appreciate her time.
