Dr. Graves doesn't mind engaging and educating patients. Has a wonderful attitude towards his trade. I feel really fortunate to be under his care. I guess you have my thoughts by now! **** But, his nurse Samantha Slaubaugh RN is nothing short of phenomenal. She is definitely a patients nurse. She helped to reduce my appointment time, thus saving me 17 days of daily pain. I highly recommend Samantha Slaubaugh RN for a MERIT RAISE. It's extremely difficult to find such a caring individual in any industry today. I would hold on to Samantha if I were youse guys!!
