National Jewish Health Patient– December, 2016
Exceptional.

National Jewish Health Patient– December, 2016
Excellent -

National Jewish Health Patient– October, 2016
I not only value Dr A. Mayer's opinion about the condition that brings me to National Jewish but I feel extremely fortunate to be able to discuss all of the other aspects of my health. She has shown a lot of patience, compassion, and humor while listening to me discuss various personal health issues. I look forward to hearing her open and honest opinions on the wide ranges of my general health condition. She is very easy to talk with and invites comfortable interactions.

National Jewish Health Patient– September, 2016
Again, I was there for allergy testing & a lot of the above I do not feel apply.

National Jewish Health Patient– September, 2016
Good all around & friendly.

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2016
So glad I was referred to National Jewish to get to the bottom of my cement allergy issue. Now I know what I'm dealing with and can make decisions about how to move forward. Excellent provider - top notch communicator. Her explanations made complete sense. I emailed a concern and was quite surprised that she called me after hours that same day. This provider "blew my socks off" with her knowledge, communication, and responsiveness.

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2016
