Pros

Very personable, kind and understanding. I am enjoying developing a relationship overtime. Looking forward to working with her in the near future. Pride Health is fortunate and lucky to have staff like Reetika & Priyanka on their team.

Cons

Sometimes the reception went in and out, so it's hard to talk over the phone.
