PA Laura is awesome. You can tell she cares deeply for her patients and wants the bests for them. She is a great listener, asked a lot of helpful questions to help me communicate what was going on, and has a great support team. She's a wonderful resource fro the SC ER. So glad to be cared for by Laura and the team. It's never awesome going to the ER, especially for an unknown ailment. Laura was able validate that nothing major was going on and suggested clear next steps to continue to get better. Thanks again Laura!
