    Dr Sweet is my PCP, I have been seeing her for years. She also took my mother on as a patient when she needed a PCP. She is the best of the best! I've never dealt with any healthcare professional that is any better than her. She listens to what you have to say she's knowledgeable about your entire medical history even before you go in and sit down, she looks right at you as you speak paying total attention to you. Only when she is checking about your medication's or lab results does she turn to her computer. She gives you her undivided attention every time. I have all the faith in the world in her. As I said, the best of the best.
