Dr Hawkins explained procedures in a very understandable way and answered all my questions frankly.
Swedish Patient
As someone who has searched for answers about my condition for at least 10 years with 5 different specialists, I was taken back by how thorough Dr. Hawkins was and how much she already knew about my medical history with this problem before we started engaging in conversation. Everything she told me is what I have been personally thinking; her opinion matched mine which meant everything to me. She was easy to talk to and did not rush through the appointment. Can't say thank you enough.
