"Dr Gould seemed to be open and friendly. He answered my questions fully . I have to admit to being very nervous .. strange for me. So I hope I made a good impression on Him :o) Everyone I met at the U of W at Madison was wonderful, from admissions to Dr Gould, all wore smiles and seemed genuine. His Nurse was frustrated that they did not seem to have all my paper work. A quick call to my Dr and they faxed the necessary documents. I did feel a bit rushed but I heard Surgeons tend to be that way. Despite (such a small thing anyway) that I did come away with the feeling that he was a caring and competent surgeon and that he would there for me. They agreed to my having pre-op testing done at our local hospital ( we are 2 hrs away from them). I was happy to find that they have an aftercare program. I will be seeing him again before the surgery to discuss more about the risks and care.
