      I could not have asked for a better endocrinologist during my time going through Seattle Children's. She's absolutely wonderful at her job, never pressures you to do anything you're uncomfortable with, and lets you set the pace for your transition. She keeps it very realistic in terms of what to expect and is always going to prepare you for best and worst case scenarios. She's listened to every concern I've had and walked me through them with ease, she is so confident and kind. Not once has she ever made me feel uncomfortable and she has been nothing but helpful in every aspect that I've needed her support in.
