Dr. Tolia walked me from the exam room back to the main lobby when our visit was complete. I told her that she didn't have to do that. I laughed and told her she had way too much education to be escorting me back to the lobby. I told her that if there were arrows on the floor I could just follow them back to the lobby (of course I was kidding with her). She laughed and said, "I am your arrows". Awesome! What a wonderful response! I love Dr Tolia!!!!
