Dr Skarbnik seems like his depth of knowledge is vast in his field. He was more relaxed and helped more with understanding how this disease works and what to expect moving forward. Since this was only my 2nd visit and I wasn't sure that I am able to understand each visit and test results I brought my oldest son to help us understand if this will be expected to be hereditary for either son. Dr. Skarbnic seemed a bit impatient throughout the exam and brief questions we had. I am not sure why. Should I not bring a family member to the visit?
