Explained and answered any concerns regarding my procedure before surgery. I now feel a hundred percent better and am grateful. He is very direct, honest and doesn't sugarcoat anything. Might be construed as rude by some, but I prefer the person operating on me to be direct and honest so I know what to expect. Overall, I am pleased with my experience.
