5.0 star star star star starBesides all the above (which i copied here) she was also friendly, approachable. Dr DeSapri was on time, professional, to the point, smart, shared her findings and the why with me (curious minds want to know and be convinced)

4.0 star star star star star_borderDr DeSapri seems competent and likable, but I think there needs to be another doctor who also specializes in women's bone health. Her staff isn't very responsive when trying to make an appt. As I understand it, Dr DeSapri is only in the office to see patients a couple of days a week? As already mentioned, I waited 1 hour past my appt time before seeing her.

4.0 star star star star star_borderDr. DeSapri is very knowledgable about osteoporosis. It is helpful to see someone who specializes in this. She is easy to talk to, and answers questions clearly. However, she was a bit rushed the day I saw her, and I wished I had more time.

5.0 star star star star starFor the reasons listed above. She did not rush our visit, took time to learn my condition & review past test results, and provided a path for treatment that was well explained. She, along with her staff, respond quickly to questions on my chart, whether in written form or by the phone.
