December 5, 2017
Asked By:TheWorriedOne2 in Fort Collins, CO

Im wondering if its ok that a clinic nurse does my micro needing treatment. Im going to a professional, certified clinic but when i went in to get my numbing cream my Dr told me the procedure would actually be done by her nurse. The nurse isnt listed on their their clinic bios so i cant check credentials. Any thoughts?
