Verified @mchs.comDr. Prentiss was a fantastic speaker for our Ladies Night Out event. Our program with her was our first big in-person patient event since 2019. Dr. Prentiss brought us back with energy, laughter, information, and emotion. It can feel pretty raw nowadays to be back in-person sharing our thoughts when we've had the anonymity of a computer screen for so long and Dr. Prentiss made it a safe space for vulnerability and connection. We have received positive feedback from both our in-person and virtual attendees. Even our patients that needed to attend virtually felt her energy!
