      He had definitely read the information in my chart and knew about my skin cancer when I asked about the benefits of sunlight and vitamin D. I was impressed.

      Since we had a long (2hr) drive and I am in a wheelchair, Dr Rao and other staff were able to work together to get the additional scans and lab needed at this visit instead of having me come back for the tests.
