    I found that this care provider was, I just thought he was awesome. He was very kind. He listened. He spoke clearly about what my options were, what I should do, suggestions, leaving a ball in my court because I'm in charge of my own self. And I found that to be very respectful. Yet, he did what he was supposed to do as a healthcare provider is assess my situation and tell me what my options were and provide follow-up and leave it to me to do the rest for it as my body. And I totally appreciate that. I think he's great and I think that you people need more people like that in the world that we live in today. Thank you.

    Dr. Benavides was working with us on sleep medicine. And he met with both my wife and I. My wife has done a fair amount of independent research or background information gathering and everything. And he responded very well to questions she asked from that background look. And he was very, very consistent with what we were what we had been hearing and really gave us some optimistic outlook. I don't know. So I'm looking forward to continue working with him in the future.
