Dr New seemed rushed on this visit.Given the fact that I had not seen her in two years, I would have appreciated a more comprehensive conversation about menopause, since I know this is one of her specialties. Perhaps a few more questions to get a bigger picture of my health would have helped. She seemed in a hurry, which was different from my experience in past visits.
