Dr Dawn Pedrotty is one of the most highly skills professional cardiologists specialist I have ever come across. And I've seen a lot of her ability to answer all questions in medical and Lehmans terms so that I can understand is absolutely phenomenal. The way she breaks down reports, acquires reports, (past) and presents ( VA) and out of state to make sure everything is covered is hands down the best. Her coloring ability is on point even for us Marines.
