    He was incredibly patient despite the fact that I couldn't find my own headphones. And so I couldn't hear him as well as I would like to. And I've only done a couple of virtual appointments, so I wasn't that good at virtual appointments. But he was very patient. And he took his time to explain everything to me.

    This was some of the best medical care that I have received at MGH where I've been going for 25 years now. The doctor was absolutely amazing and so kind and so generous with his time and so respectful and his medical assistant or maybe that was his nurse who took my blood pressure and other vitals and was the kindest, kindest person, one of the kindest people I've ever met. Just her manner, her voice and the fact that she brought me food because she learned that I was hungry and made sure I ate. So yes, I was quite blown away.
