    Dr Licht is always been amazing about listening to the problem at hand for the patient.

    Dr Licht is not only thorough, but shows genuine interest in your questions and concerns. She never acts like she is in a hurry to get to the next patient, even though you know she probably has a packed schedule. While I don't love having long waits, I would rather wait and have a great caring doctor then be rushed through with no time to ask questions and be listened to.
