The visit was a delight! The nurse or PA who led me to the room to take my vitals was charming and efficient. I loved meeting the doctor, since the first time I saw her was immediately before I was wheeled in for surgery. My surgery was very successful with no side effects. She explained everything thoroughly, and I was sent home with very explicit instructions as to post surgical care. I highly recommend her!
