      I liked how he explained my condition and my options. He also explained in detail that if I have the procedure, he recommends, it will not cure my situation, but make it more tolerable. I am glad to know that upfront and it made it easy for me to make a decision to go ahead with the procedure. I would much rather he be honest, then give me false hope.
