Takes time to listen to my concerns.

It is difficult for me to rate Dr. Tanner himself because I have met him only twice. The first time I met him was for a 10 or 15 minute pre-op conference in his office about 4 weeks before surgery. The second time I met him was in the OR about for about 1 minute or so (before my anesthesia was administered). As to the office visit and communications with his office before surgery, Dr. Tanner and his staff did a very good job of helping me understand the potential problems, the alternatives, and the possible outcomes. They all seemed very sensitive to the emotional upheaval that words like cancer can invoke. As to the minute or so before surgery, there was not much time to say much of anything. Again I felt like I was in good hands.Post-surgery, I was very pleased to see the report from the surgery in MyChart within a few hours after my surgery was completed.I am fortunate that my cyst was not cancerous. The incisions made during surgery are what Dr. Tanner's office told me to expect them to be. My wounds seem to be healing well. I certainly had pain, especially the first couple of days after surgery and especially when I used my abdominal muscles (e.g., going from standing to sitting, from sitting to lying down, turning in bed at night). But by day 3 after surgery there was a noticeable decrease in pain. The pain now (day 5 after surgery) is far less though still there.So, at least at this point, it appears that the healing process is proceeding. It is difficult to complain about the results from my symptoms at this point.
