Dr. Stopa visit notes were difficult to understand because she used professional medical terms and abbreviations. I understand that these notes are probably used for communication with other health care providers, but considering that they are published in MyChart and can be read by her patients, it may be wise to make them easier to understand by people with non-medical expertise.

Dr Stopa was great! Office scheduled me next day after contracting. Dr Stopa was generous with visit time, listened to my concerns, and got me started on a treatment program that quickly reduced my symptoms. We decided on follow up w/ gastero specialist Dr. Walker.
