Dr. Harper had an agenda. My condition wasn't serious, I just wanted to know my options about treating [...] and he gave me only one idea- compression socks - which will not work with my lifestyle. I asked him for other solutions and he didn't give me any and I felt like I was wasting his time. My condition may be cosmetic but it is important to me. He immediately assumed that I wouldn't' want to hear the options because of price. I didn't care about the price, I wanted to know my options.
