Wow, what can I say about him? I waited quite a while to see him and had an appointment and surgery scheduled that then was moved, but when I finally did see him, I was so impressed. I felt really understood. He listened. He gave me what his opinion was and what I should do, I felt very confident in his assessment and in his surgical expertise. I thought he was one of the nicest doctors. I've met in a long time and I've been a nurse for 41 years and I have met a lot of doctors. I think he did a great job. And I think most of all I trust him.
