Dr. Geiger is incredible! He was kind and gentle and made me feel a part of the decisions about my health. Encourage me to ask questions so I would leave with a clear understanding and reminded me that I could message him anytime on the portal if a new question came up. He is a superhuman! I know I'm in great hands
