    How was your appointment with Dr. Choi?

    May 28, 2020
    Dr Choi was my Dr. Here in CT. She is an awesome surgeon. Caring, knowledgeable, compassionate. I could go on and on. She was with me during the most challenging times and the best times of my life. If you are thinking about going to see her... Just do it. You will know be disappointed. I miss her a lot which is why I'm writing this. Wishing her all the Best!
