    I am just happy everything went well

    October 21, 2022

    During exam, lots of numbers and lingo was mentioned back and forth between the dr and assistant. They never told me what those numbers meant. I would like to know the specifics and what that means for me so I can be aware of my situation and use that info to improve my pelvic floor health if possible.

    Great experience
