National Jewish Health Patient – December, 2022
Dr Restrepo has worked with me since 1/8/2020. I have multiple medical issues. I am on the most aggressive Sarcoid treatment which is Remicade infusions. We are having success with my breathing tests to support it. She listens to me and has a very positive outlook on my health. I take much needed tests to help continue the correct treatment. I know Sarcoid has no cure and lung scarring can not be reversed, but Dr. Restrepo keeps me grounded and positive. We have made huge strides? And she keeps me in touch with Dr. Dyke to help with my other cardiac challenges. Excellent Doctor and my trusted advisor. Thank you.
