This review is long overdue, but I am pregnant again and only one person came to mind that I trust with the medical care of myself and my baby. I cannot speak more highly about Dr. Lena's professional bedside manner, her warm and caring nature, and her ability to be personable and calm yet confident in her patient care.
I had a few traumatic experiences before I found Dr. Lena as my provider. She took time to listen, reassure, and ask me what language I felt comfortable using to describe my trauma moving forward. WHOA! It's not often that you find a doctor who collaborates with you and treats you with a holistic approach. She took time to make sure I felt safe and empowered me through allowing me to have a voice in my care. She is thorough and explained each procedure and recommendation. When I came to her with a list of questions, she would answer them by sharing evidence-based practice as well as things that were being tried in the field. It was so refreshing to hear a doctor that is not afraid of exploring all avenues of treatment. It also showed me her dedication to her field as she continually shares best-practice and what is up and coming in the field.
On my delivery date, I was hella' emotional as it was definitely a long road to get there. Dr. Lena was there for the delivery and to share in the joy and resiliency that led up to that moment. I could not have asked for a more caring and experienced doctor. Thank you, Dr. Lena!
