    Dr Shepard was very calming, a very nice lady. I felt better after seeing her, she even took me to see the radiation staff that worked with me. AAA+ Group of people.. Hope i dont have to see the again unless i go to visit.

    Regarding my last visit I didn't feel as comfortable speaking with someone new, because I felt as this was my last visit it would have been nice to spend time speaking with current doctor or nurse. Thank you for all that is being done for all veterans
