Dr. Hendricks is very intelligent, listened carefully, had empathy, and understood my condition all while remaining sensitive to my situation. And he actually took time to go over my actual imaging. I felt so much better and validated by Dr. Hendricks as he has the training and education to actually understand a patient like myself with a rare disorder.
