Everyone was very friendly & helpful.
Dr Carlson was terrific! Considering that she is a new physician for me, her openness and Interest in my CLL history was delightful. Her curiosity and her quick responses, and inquisitive interests were reassuring about her motivation to "know" me as thoroughly as possible. It is easy for a new patient to feel immediately comfortable with an individual caregiver like her. I loved it!

I am very fortunate to have been scheduled with Dr. Carlson. She is exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable in her specialties, and communicates clearly with caring and concern for her patients. Her combination of clinical skills (MD) and research skills (PhD) were evident in her explanations and diagnostic plan for me. I would highly recommend to other prospective patients.
