      Iain Gallego was absolutely amazing in his care for me. He immediately recognized the need to get me scheduled stat for further care from specialists. He expedited scheduling. Made phone calls on our behalf. Provided guidance and counsel to us in how to proceed. And offered compassion every step of the way. He extended his care to after hours later that day to help us understand confusing RX directions from our pharmacy. His care for us should rank up there with Caregiver of the year material. He helped to make a huge difference in my health and in both my wife's and my hearts in desperate need of encouragement.
