Dr Schaefer is a very good doctor who gives her full attention and is very informative. Dr Schaefer shows she cares about her patients with every visit and remembers past visits which shows that she takes the time to get to know each and every patient that she sees. In my experience with many doctors that Ive seen in the past that not one has been that way with me but only Dr Schaefer . Which is why Ive made Dr Schaefer my permanent Gynecologist.

Gynecological Problem Visit
First, I showed up to see Dr. Cristina Simpson, December 4th, BUT due to "forgetting to get me a sign language interpreter" they had to reschedule to another day. I was in serious burning pain, I asked if Dr. Simpson would be willing to communicate with me through writing on paper or can use an iPad but she said no. Then December 20th they failed to tell me I was seeing Dr. Schaefer, all the time I thought I was going to see Dr. Simpson. I didn't recognize Dr. Schaefer right away. (By the way, I called twice to make sure they got a "confirmed interpreter") Secondly I was very shocked how rude Dr. Schaefer was to me. I am PROFOUNDLY DEAF, I can not hear a sound or even a word. While she was asking me questions, I would answer right after I saw the interpreter stop signing means I knew it was time for me to reply. When the interpreter starts signing then I watch as the doctor kept talking. BUT when the interpreter stops signing I start to talk. Dr. Schaefer grew frustrated and told me to "stop interrupting her". I didn't know she was talking and I was talking at the same time. I wish she said it in a nicer way. But it came out pretty rude (by the way of the interpreter signing it). The INTERPRETER SHOULD BE STANDING NEXT TO THE DOCTOR, this way I can see when the doctor is finished talking and then it's my turn. The exam room was small. Next time they should put me in a bigger room, so we can have the interpreter stand with the doctor. I hope this helps for the next time she has a deaf patient. To this day, my symptoms are still bad no improvement.
