Just to reinforce my previous thoughts I find Dr breaker extremely well prepared. Dr breaker is extremely intelligent and has a wide range of experience and she's very articulate however she's able to break things down at a level that I can understand them. He's very comforting and at the same time does a great job at keeping me focused on what the issues are
