    Anonymous Patient

  • “When my doctor recommended Sheryl, I waited a while and finally called. That’s probably been pushing 10 years ago; Dr. Bear has a great personality, very wise, great listener, and for me now, a very good friend. She makes many of the most challenging situations, manageable. I don’t know how I went that long without her.”
