WakeMed made it easy for me from making the appointment to seeing a specialist without me having to jump through hoops! All of the employees I encountered seemed to be glad to take care of my needs - this is hard to find in most industries today - particularly medical. My trigger finger issue was probably minor in the scheme of things but it interfered with my day to day activities & you all fixed this with great care!

Very knowledgeable and nice- thorough!
