All the staff was helpful. I'm very grateful for how understanding Ms.Janelle was due to me late because of transportation, she made sure to accommodate me to make sure I was able to receive treatment. I'm very appreciative. I do Show morehave questions about why we can only receive treatment 3 times a week, what happens if we are in crisis and need infusion more than 3 times? I only have positive feedback about the staff and the care that I received.
