"My surgeon will be Dr. John Husted from Nashville, TN. He requires all patients to attend a seminar before he sees you in person. During the seminar his nurse addressed several issues on the Fobi pouch and the procedure. Then Dr. Husted took over speaking. He was very precise on the topic and the explaining of the procedure. He was in no hurry to finish nor was his nurse. Many questions were asked from the people attending and he answered each of them until the person was satisfied with the answer. Right after the seminar I had my first appointment with him.Again I saw his nurse then him and he went over it again with me and my family. Before I left he made sure I understood the procedure and was comfortable with it. I thought he and his nurse were wonderful people that truly cared about each individuals needs. I feel very confident that I have picked the best surgeon for me. I would recommend him to anyone. From what I have saw myself and learned from other patients I have no worries about his bed-side manner for he will be right there. Although I will update after he has performed the surgical procedure. I do know that after surgery he will be caring for me on a lifetime basis. "
