What people think of Dr Christine Ren Fielding
Dr. Ren Fielding is AMAZING. First impression: professional, knowledgeable, caring… My impressions have only improved. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. It is so scary to undergo this process. You will feel a hundred times better if you know you are in experienced, capable hands.
