I have a condition with essential tremor. I have suffered with this since the age of 16 Dr. Clara performing the most thorough evaluation I have ever gone through and was extremely detailed as to what can be done. Her team is very professional from the point of getting an appointment right through to the visit and summary I am confident that her office is on the cutting edge of what’s going on with essential tremor
