Reassuring

Nicole was very patient in explaining my options and allowing me to ask her repeated questions until i understood everything clearly. She was very helpful and sympathetic to my worries. She is very knowledgeable in so many aspects as other services that I could follow up with for further assistances that I had not heard of before . Nicole was easy to talk with and reassure me with every stage which continued into day two. Nicole has given me hope that I can with her achieve my goals.
