This doctor, is the kindest and warm doctor: He has such compassion and took the time to explain the procedure: Then after; my husband’s hernia surgery sat down with me to explain what was done and how to recover!!! The hospital is fortunate to have him!!

He explains things in "lay terms". He is eager to answer my questions so I can understand completely what he is trying to convey. He exudes confidence so I have no doubt that I will receive the best care possible.

He's made me feel supported at all points in this process and I'm grateful for the care I've received. It has truly been life-changing. I am turning 50 and feel like I did when I was 20.
