Dr. Lewallen is knowledgeable and experienced in supporting caregivers as they face the challenges of caring for their loved ones. She has helped see me through my mom’s end of life and is now helping manage that grief and the new challenges of the aftermath and expectations that follow. I appreciate her practical perspective.
