"Dr. Veninga made me feel comfortable, was very honest and knowledgeable. I felt as if I was opening up to a long time friend. The initial consulation was so helpful in understanding why I was having this type of surgery. He was honest and didn't try to push me into something I wasn't sure about. He even honestly advised to me other options. Since my PCP had good things to say about him, and after his Team meetings, I knew he cared. At the meeting he answered every question asked, and didn't try to rush the answers where you couldn't understand. I had no problems getting approved by my insurance carrier. Everyone on his team who did my pre-test were friendly and explained the pre-surgery test. This meant so much to me, because it let me know Dr. Veninga wanted to do these test to have sucessful healing period afterwards. Along with no suprises the day of the surgery. I am healing and doing everything he has asked that I do to continue healing. He is a honest, and thoughtful surgeon, both he and his staff are very supportive. I give them all an A+"
