Make Nisha my PCP
“Dr. Basu focused on the things that were concerning me. She took the time to get my full medical history and fostered an accepting, warm atmosphere so that I felt comfortable sharing with her. I felt as if she had enough time for me to ask all my questions."
Ivy B, Firefly Patient
